I think this was high tide for the Paul family. You had: widespread war fatigue, new military intervention initiated by Obama + a Tea Party/anti-government/anti-debt wave + in Romney, a frontrunner the base was extremely wary (culturally and politically) + a total vacuum of good alternatives to him, in Virginia, literally no alternatives. And still, Ron Paul couldn't get very far. And the GOP is a party that historically warms up to candidates the more they run. And grandfatherly Ron is more charismatic than Rand. I'd bet Rand would run worse than his Dad.
