First Gaffe Of The Season

You know, the beautiful thing about politics is not just the idea of our next leaders, not just the thrill of the trials of running, but also because a canidate may say something that no sane person who's actually thinking would say. Yes, I am looking at you, Joe Biden. The great thing about a rookie is that they are more likely to say something that looks bad. Yes, I'm looing at you, Rand Paul. Mr. Paul is in troubled waters, after expressing unease with a part of the Civil Rights Act, the part banning discrimination by businesses. And while he did say that the CRA was nessecery, and that he opposes rascism... Maybe it's just me, but I would find that hard to believe after what he said. He seems as libertarian as his father as well, calling for the dissolution of the Department of Education, plus term limits for senators. While this probably won't destroy his campaign (Kentucky is very Republican in national elections), it just goes to show how careful one should be when they talk, not just politicians.
