So Rand Paul actually held out for a full repeal, rather than the faux conservatives tinkering around the edges and leaving the majority of the stinking pile of crap intact. You are objecting to the bomb squad choosing to disarm a bomb rather than delaying the explosion by a few hours...
This is why libertarianism will never go anywhere.

By the way, the correct analogy would be that he lets the bomb go off rather than delaying the explosion.

You can differ by category if you like.
Doctrinaire - Ted Cruz
Most electable - I have to wonder if Nikki Haley won’t be the first female President
Pundit - Rush Limbaugh is still top o’ the charts.

Hall of Famers we miss - Wm F Buckley, Ronald Reagan

Seemingly in early retirement (lifetime achievement awards) - Charles Krauthammer, Thomas Sowell

Rookies to watch: Shapiro, Mark Stein, and our own Dave Brat

Somma y’all are getting lost in the libertarian weeds, which is fine, and likely the future of conservativism redux, but I’m looking solely at conservatives (I think).
So I put (the dead dog) on her doorstep!
