Today Rand Paul formally announced he is running for President. Also today, a shadowy group run by a former McCain consultant launched a four state (and nationwide cable) $1 million ad buy to paint Paul as an extremist.[read_more]
The Foundation for a Secure and Prosperous America [FSPA], a 501(c)4 organization, run by former John McCain Consultant Rick Reed immediately announced an ad buy designed to paint Paul as unreasonable on foreign policy and working in concert with Obama. As a 501(c)4, the FSPA does not have to report its donors, as long as it is not advocating for the election or defeat of a particular candidate. The FSPA does have to make its tax filings available at its headquarters, the location of which appears to be purposefully obscured. I’ll be following up with FSPA shortly.

This ad buy might make more sense if anybody knew what Rand Paul’s foreign policy would be. It seems to evolve week to week.
Mark Levin said tonight that Carl Rove is a leader of this movement and identified several members of the old Bush cabal as lieutenants.
Who does the John McCain clique like besides that pillar of mush from SC Lindsey Graham? Never FEAR Paul has it all covered with his number one supporter and best Senate bro Mitch McConnell. Yes those two will change Washington together as he stated in his announcement today. In case your confused that is sarcasm. What a complete phony this guy is but what every you might be looking for don’t worry he will provide it if it furthers his career object the presidency, the country well that’s a separate issue.
Yeah, because he’s soooooo phoney for working with others in HIS OWN PARTY.
With folks like this in charge of the GOP, I wonder why we’ve lost the popular vote in 5 out of the last 6 presidential elections. It’s a total mystery.
