Rand Paul Melts Down Again During Press Interview

Rand Paul seems to be weak and folds easily when the pressure is put on him.

It's hard to see a pathway to the Presidency that involves alienating every major news outlet on the planet, but Rand Paul is certainly trying to forge one.

He falls apart consistently.

He won't get very far with his aggressive interview style, so it's safe to just sit back and enjoy the show that is the Republican primary season.

Maybe they will have a female moderator to whom he can bully and condescend.

you, know, actually asking questions. Wonder what that infamous 3AM phone call would do to his temperament.

If he keeps doing this he's going to drop out any day now. What will be his excuse though? He accidentally swallowed his testicles?

Good thing for him that Kentucky voters didn't care about his cowardice then.

He doesn't have the experience, temperament, intestinal fortitude and thick skin that is required to be a presidential candidate. Sooner or later he'll implode.

He's going out of his way to be a prick to the media to gain cred with the Palin "Lamestream Media" gang.
