Rand Paul Bailing on 2nd Debate? Method to his madness?

[babylonsister]

No wonder he got so 'irate' during the debate. Now he can skip this one. Makes perfect bagger sense to me!

Rand Paul Considering Skipping Final KY-SEN Debate
Evan McMorris-Santoro | October 18, 2010, 11:46AM


If you can't stand the heat -- or, in this case, the questions about your college shenanigans involving 'Aqua Buddha' -- get of of the kitchen. (Or, in this case, the previously-scheduled televised Senate debate.)

Rand Paul is considering skipping the final debate of the Kentucky Senate race, one day after a Louisville debate with Democratic nominee Jack Conway that was among the cycle's nastiest.

Paul told reporters this morning that he "will make a final decision soon on whether to appear with Conway on Kentucky Educational Television on Oct. 25," the AP reports.

Paul did not approve of last night's debate, which centered around Conway's new ad attacking Paul over stories of the Republican's years at Baylor.

"You demean Kentucky," Paul told Conway at one point.

Here's what the debate looked like in 164 seconds:

1. I would not want to do it twice if I was him.

Sorta like Meg Whitman out here.

2. The method is that the less he talks the better off he is

He will just do what the other Tea Baggers are doing and just let Fox News carry their water for the last 2 weeks

3. I have visions of him throwing a hissy fit on the Senate floor.

What a disaster.....

4. Rand Paul's wallowing in victimhood (I thought only Lib'ruls did that? :) )

He's spinning Conway's ad into an attack on Christianity--especially HIS Christianity (instead of his hypocrisy). In a fit of poutrage, he uses it as an excuse not to do another debate (and, for drama, refused to even shake hands with Conway).

It may play well with fundies, but I wonder if looking weak and pouty will help him as much as he seems to think it will.

6. Isn't it odd? I see Conway has revealing Paul's college activities.

5. put on your man-pants, Rand,
