Word’s just in that the junior senator from Kentucky has signed on to deliver a “Tea Party” response to both the president’s SOTU and Marco Rubio’s official GOP response.
And before you can say “phony war,” the MSM is setting this up as reflecting the yawning gap between the Rubio/Rove “establishment” and the True Conservative tribes–once again showing how no matter what happens to and within the GOP, its “center” keeps getting pulled to the Right.
I don’t know what if anything Rubio or Paul will say on international issues; if so they will probably be offering a stark choice between immediate and ultimate war with much of the rest of the world. But on domestic issues, you’ll need a crow-bar to pry them apart.
