      Anyone still willing to argue that Rand Paul's "Blue Dog Democrat" opponent in 2010 would have been a better senator? http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2012/dec/28/fisa-feinstein-obama-democrats-eavesdropping …

      @mtracey Yes, he was a populist on fiscal policy

      @danielmarans I don't know what "populist on fiscal policy" means. Rand Paul is a populist as well, in a sense.

      @mtracey I mean Conway would have been more likely to vote against Social Security cuts for one, and bad trade deals for another

      @danielmarans Even granting that (which I don't), when are we allowed to prioritize the preservation of civil liberties? Once they're gone?

      @mtracey And I'd argue economic dislocation makes us more susceptible to paranoid ideology that leads to reductions in liberties

      @danielmarans Also recall Conway criticizing Rand for opposing drug prohibition and not worshiping Christ fervently enough.

          @mtracey For every one Rand, Dems have Merkley, Wyden, Udall.

          @danielmarans Whom Rand just partnered with on FISA. But for him, GOP caucus would have been unanimously behind the extension. That matters.

          @mtracey I'm still just not sure where I'd land if it was in my power to pick. Group voting blocs matter.

          @mtracey At the end of the day Rand's 1-man libertarianism isn't that powerful. Dem majority--who lean more civil libertarian--is
