A tea bagger Senator. Who is Rand Paul?
Rand Paul won the GOP nomination for senator from Kentucky. If elected, he would replace the loony Republican and former baseball player, Jiim Bunning.Bunning is mainly remembered for being a loose canon, even by GOP wing-nut standards, and for holding up unemployment compensation during a period of the worst unemployment since the Great Depression.

Rand is the son of uber-libertarian, Ron Paul, who ran on a no-government platform for president in 2008.
