Yikes, Gawker on Rand Paul (It Ain't Pretty)

In a recap of the tragic results for the Ron Paul contingent in Mitt Romney controlled Tampa, Gawker explained Rand Paul this way:

The Ron Paul delegate rōnin clamored for a floor vote Tuesday, but were gaveled into irrelevancy by his bronze eminence, House Speaker John Boehner Steve Reeves. Then, last night, the RNC attempted to placate them with a video about Ron Paul and a speech from his son. 

Both options were insipid even to people who loathe the good doctor. The video ignored Paul's foreign policy, which not only comprises a significant part of his appeal but also is an area in which his command of history and context far outpaces his former GOP primary opponents.

Then there's his son, Rand, twerpy dipshit, peddler of endless appeals to his own victimization and all-around shameless whore—who campaigned on his father's ideological legacy (and his Randroid first name), only to spend the last two years nuzzling lovingly under the throat wattle of Kentucky's own Futuristic Hyperturtle Mitch McConnell.

No wonder the Paulbots had enough. These token gifts of appreciation from the RNC sound like being kicked in the balls in Hell's own Hallmark store, forever. So when the videos ended, the Paulbots walked. Loudly.
