Notice how the "tea party" (wonder why they are hiding from saying they are a political wing of the Republican party) folks are not involving themselves anymore in "blue states." They learnt their lesson in NY. Now they are only focussing in their strongholds such as Kentucky. The Kentucky goal was to embarrass their party leadership in DC. Simply put, this is a breakaway party which does not accept a party chairman who is a "colored man". Plus, you've got crazy on crazy [tea partiers on the Pauls]. Have you ever seen the issues platform for the Pauls? They may be smart but its crazy smart....not a good combo. Also notice how they got behind a "sure thing" candidate. After all, Ron Paul had a unexpectedly good showing in the Presidential primaries. So anything connected to him in a smaller theatre such as a statewide election has a high likelihood of success. And the "tea party" decided to jump on the bandwagon so as to bolster the sagging morale of their troops after several defeats. The interesting thing is how he does in his race with Conway, the Dem selection. In polling prior to the primaries, Paul was not doing that well against Conway. Let us see how they mess up Rubio's chances in Florida. Florida voters are tough. Even Hillary and Obama had problems there. I bet Crist wins it in FLA.
