The same reason he won't run as an Indy. Rand's future in the party would be threatened by it.
Don't worry. We won't let the slightly less insane jackass go anywhere in the party either.
Lol. Who was the only tea partier to be elected senator in 2010? He's in the senate, your guy isn't. As for who Paul has attacked in the debates, it's no coincidence that Rick Santorum has the lion's share. Rick Santorum goes after him in the debates quite a bit. Note that the 2 candidates who left him alone (Huntsman and Romney) were the 2 he didn't attack.
Uh...Rubio wasn't a Tea Partier? And depending on how it's defined, others can be classified as Tea Partiers, too. And my guy was in the Senate for twelve years. What's your point aside from the usual, childish "Haha, your guy lost an election!"?
Sorry I'm late, but our guy didn't lose BY TWENTY FREAKING POINTS!!
Sorry, it needed to be said. Even in a democratic year, PA's a swing state, and to get clobbered by 20%, well that's the robot saying "DANGER WILL ROBINSON!"
