Too late, Rand

Ryan Alessi of the Lexington Herald-Leader reports:

"Republican U.S. Senate candidate Rand Paul said he wants the tea party movement that has fueled his primary campaign to morph into a broader government reform effort that would have appeal beyond conservative circles."

It's a little late for that, Rand.

If the Nastea crowd didn't want to limit their appeal to just the extreme Right, then maybe they shouldn't have supported that FairTax bullshit. And maybe they shouldn't have been racist. And maybe they shouldn't have done most of the things they've done.

The Tea Parties trying to appeal beyond conservative circles would be like The Last Word trying to appeal to the Heritage Foundation.
