>> Is Rand Paul FINISHED now as a candidate?

Rand hurt himself generally, and I'm starting to think he is not sufficiently measured in his comments, lacks the speaking discipline, to run an effective presidential campaign. As dull as it is you have to be able to play to a stupid-assed crowd and be consistent and planned in your message, or you have to be as able as Reagan or Clinton to call an audible.

I'm questioning whether Rand can do that at this point.

If Rand can't and Carson can't, the country is in trouble because Hillary can. And I'm not sure the others are going to be in it. (Krauthammer is giving Rubio a shot and he IS an excellent speaker; seems like a long shot but better against Krauthammer generally probably isn't a good idea).

His comments were about as dumb as they come regarding vaccinations so I'm wondering if he can still be considered even a fringe candidate.

.....tell us all EXACTLY what you believe his comments
on vaccination were and on what venue did you hear him espouse them
