Do yourself a favor and use Nate Silvers numbers.

He is easily the most accurate forecaster of political races.
Actually that was from a Nate Silver discussion on one of the talk/news shows this past week, talking about Sestak race and a few others. I agree 538 is the most accurate Also still about 75% for GOP to take House.

Yes, the "GOP retakes the Senate for sure Tsunami" was re-written shortly after the primaries, when the Tea Party candidates started opening their mouths and it was realized that was lost

Paul is pure extreme anti-government Libertarian through and through. No way for me. You go right ahead if you wish.

He's not a true libertarian. But I won't let your consistent hysterics get in the way of facts.

Today on 538, Silver has the Senate Democratic, but the GOP only up 19-20 in the House. That's low, the predictions started at 40.

And Rand Paul's wife - that's right, the wife, not the candidate - is holding a press conference in 45 minutes at 1:00 eastern, I presume to cry over Jack Conway still running the Aqua Buddha ad (all that fuss over a bong, geesh <g>) and talk about how Christian they are.

My laughter at Coach's purposely misogynistic selection of adjective combined with his apparent utter inability (I can only assume it inability, as it wasn't offered up, he resorted to his usual name-calling as a debate tactic) to describe what makes Rand Paul not a definitive Libertarian.

consistent hysterics retorted with comparing me mentally to a five year old are only equal insults in your feeble mind.

I really hope you get cancer and die a slow, painful death. If I had a horse that was near death I would sell it to a slaughterhouse instead of sending it to you. The chances of it surviving would be much higher.

Have a nice day, scumbag.

Geeshus, you're a bore.

Maybe you could take a deep breath, try and act a little like an adult, and tell us why you think Rand Paul isn't a textbook Libertarian.

You made the claim he was an extremist libertarian. The burden of proof lies on your stupid ass.

Don't forget to stomp your feet, stick out your tongue, and kick the wall.

Way to avoid backing up your ridiculous claim. The insults hurled your way are valid. You're a colossal piece of s.hit.

No true libertarian would be against abortion rights. Use your ass instead of your head next time.

You remind me that Pauls position on education sucks, too. And mental health care.

Default Rand Paul agrees to return to Monday debate

Good news - Rand Paul has decided to attend the last Monday night debate with Jack Conway after all. After last debate he said he's pulling out.

Not a hard decision, really, because the hosts and Conway said they would go ahead with the televised debate as a question-answer grill of the single candidate even if Paul didn't show.

The last debate was filled with Aqua Buddha fireworks (Paul leaving at the end and refusing to shake Conway's hand, etc) - this will be interesting!

Default Rand Paul supporters stomp on woman outside debate

Well, interesting debate tonight.

Especially the video WKYT-27 News took before the event in the parking lot, a few Rand Paul supporters outside the event throwing to the ground, and stomping on the head of, a woman who says she's from MoveOn.org holding an anti-Rand sign.

Way to go, brave tolerant men of Kentucky!
