It seems that the GOP has Paul in their sights now.
He is getting hit from all sides. If you are someone
Fed up with the establishment republicans I think
this will help Paul or possibly it could hurt him because the Primary election moves right?


Rivals lash Rand Paul on security

http://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/243277-rivals-lash-rand-paul-on-security

Republican presidential contenders are beginning to go after Rand Paul, sensing that the Kentucky senator’s national security positions could become a liability with GOP primary voters.New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal ripped into Paul this week for his statements about terrorist threats and government surveillance. 

Christie accused Paul of siding with the “criminal” leaker Edward Snowden, while Jindal declared the Kentuckian unfit to be commander in chief because of a statement he made blaming GOP hawks for the rise of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS).

GOP strategists say Paul has left himself vulnerable with the Republican base by crusading against National Security Agency surveillance and bashing fellow Republicans for arming Syrian rebels.“The reason that they’re going after Rand Paul is they feel like Rand Paul’s views were more popular and more on the ascendancy a couple years ago than they are today,” said Peter Wehner, a veteran of three Republican administrations who now serves as a senior fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center.“He’s doubling down on these views. He’s doing filibusters and a lot of television talk shows trying to make the case that the Patriot Act and the NSA are infringing on civil liberties and that this is a tremendous threat to the country.

I don’t think that’s where most Republican primary voters are.”Christie timed his comments ahead of a five-state tour planned next month to prepare for the launch of his own presidential campaign.
