What’s Wrong With Rand Paul’s Campaign? | FiveThirtyEight
I don't think that Paul really had a chance of winning the nomination, but I do hope that he does not fall out before the contest really begins. I think that it is very healthy for a political party to have the kinds of internal debates that Paul forces the GOP to have. If Paul is not in the picture in a relevant way, then there will not be anyone else to ask the kinds of questions that he is willing to ask.
