        @HeerJeet @JamilSmith @NewRepublic Which begs the question: can they lower the bar of rationality even lower?? #GOPLimbo

        @HeerJeet @JamilSmith Wow - that says a lot about this bunch of GOP Presidential candidates when Rand Paul is the 'reasonable one'...

        @DamonLinker @JamilSmith Oh, as Jamil mentions in piece there are many issues where Paul is nuts. But still better than the pack.

        @HeerJeet I was wondering why his poll numbers were so low. Thanks for clarifying @JamilSmith @NewRepublic

        @HeerJeet @JamilSmith He's doing a good job of trolling the GOP on its delusions and contradictions.

        @HeerJeet @JamilSmith When Rand Paul is most rational, and he was, the GOP is doomed (or so I hope, it should be based on that metric).
