…..I don’t think Ron would run [third party], but I’d be the first in line to start the petition for Rand. Kill two birds with one stone. Start the new generation right now, and take even more of the Republican votes away from the “establishment” candidate. I’d vote for Ron as a third party, a sixth party, or a birthday party, but in all honesty, I think a Rand Paul run as a third party in the event that Ron doesn’t get the Republican nod, would shake the foundations of the election. You know every Ron supporter would stick with Rand, as long as he stays as consistent as his dad is. And Hannity has been kissing Rand’s … for a while now, this would be a young, energetic, charismatic version of Ron, with a built in support system.
