U.S. Sen. Rand Paul continues to court establishment “Republicans” as he assembles his 2016 presidential bid – an effort which is rapidly becoming a case study in the extent to which principles are sacrificed for power...
Paul’s latest GOP establishment play comes in the form of his association with New York “Republican” windbag and establishment rolodex Mallory Factor, who heads up an “exclusive,” invitation-only monthly gathering of special interest carpetbaggers each month at a swanky private club in his adopted home of Charleston, S.C.We used to be invited to attend these gatherings, but then we eviscerated one of the national sellouts invited by Factor to address his crony capitalist horde.And the invitations dried up …Oh well …Factor is now Rand Paul’s South Carolina “consultant,” which is great if you want to suck up to Lindsey Graham bankrollers … not-so-great if you want to represent the Palmetto State residents who are forced to pick up the tab for all that special interest whoring.
