I bet the Republicans will attack Rand for comparing the GOP to having something like Dominos bad crust. "Just admit it" lol
They will, of course, but he can parse that out if/when necessary to soften the blow.
Bottom line: Rand killed it tonight. This strategy of going after traditionally Democratic constituencies is rapidly shifting from novelty to game changer.
I'm a happy camper right now..

I can't wait for WHEN Rand wins the primary, in the general election campaign we will see more of this rhetoric. When the primary is behind him he won't have to worry so much about pleasing the establishment and can start full speed leading a national movement and the GOP revolution
Former U.S. Secretary of Labor Robert Reich watched from the back of the room.
"There are not too many people who can get a standing ovation at CPAC and a standing ovation at Berkeley," said Reich, now a UC-Berkeley professor.
I was misled to think Rand Paul would be speaking with democrats. I think his speech may even have been slightly misleading, as to make it appear he was talking to a democrat audience. I'd bet the room was more that 3/4 libertarian. I think he should debate the progressives at Berkeley instead of give a rehearsed well received talk to fans of his.
