Rand Paul isn't all that popular here in Kentucky, and the Tea Party isn't especially strong (supposedly it's infused with the religious right, which the Tea Party isn't asupposed to be). He has also change his position on illegal immigrates, which won't fly---either in Kentucky or within the conservative movement nationally. Also, Paul needs friends with really deep pockets since he doesn't have the money personally. Politically, he is at least as experienced as Obama was politically when he ran for President; perhaps more so. His father, Ron Paul, have "been there done that", so hell prove to be a hugh asset to Rand's campaign. As more get into the race, I think his star fades.

From Screwed:
"Thom Hartmann’s book explains in simple language and with concrete research the details of the Neo-con’s war against the American middle class. It proves what many have intuited and serves to remind us that without a healthy, employed, and vital middle class, America is no more than the richest Third World country on the planet."
Peter Coyote, Actor and author of Sleeping Where I Fall
From Unequal Protection, 2nd Edition:
"Hartmann combines a remarkable piece of historical research with a brilliant literary style to tell the grand story of corporate corruption and its consequences for society with the force and readability of a great novel."
David C. Korten, author of When Corporations Rule the World and Agenda for A New Economy
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"In an age rife with media-inspired confusion and political cowardice, we yearn for a decent, caring, deeply human soul whose grasp of the problems confronting us provides a light by which we can make our way through the quagmire of lies, distortions, pandering, and hollow self-puffery that strips the American Dream of its promise. How lucky we are, then, to have access to the wit, wisdom, and willingness of Thom Hartmann, who shares with us here that very light, grown out of his own life experience."
Mike Farrell, actor, political activist, and author of Just Call Me Mike and Of Mule and Man
