Wall Street Journal columnist Peggy Noonan didn’t mention Kentucky’s Rand Paul in her latest column, but his bid for the U.S. Senate exemplifies her message:
“Which gets us to the Republicans. The question isn’t whether they’ll win seats in the House and Senate this year, and the question isn’t even how many. The question is whether the party will be worthy of victory, whether it learned from its losses in 2006 and ‘08, whether it deserves leadership. Whether Republicans are a worthy alternative. Whether, in short, they are serious.”
Rand’s support of term limits and balanced budgets, as well as his clear opposition to bailouts, explains why Kentucky voters see him as the serious pick in this year’s race.
