Another Democrat is up.

Sen. McConnell Press‏@McConnellPress

 

McConnell: I intend to oppose the nomination of Brennan & congratulate @SenRandPaul for this extraordinary effort #StandWithRand #Kentucky

Cruz has rebounded well. The first 20 minutes reading tweets was mind numbing. He is doing much better over the past 20 minutes.

 

I thought it was pretty cool.

 

Rand is not allowed to sit, go to the bathroom, have electronics -- nothing.

 

I think reading those tweets was uplifting and showed Rand he had support.

 

Huge support via twitter.

 

The GOP is starting to rally behind him.

I didn't realize that Rand couldn't sit or go to the bathroom. Even more impressed.

From Twitter:

 

He is allowed to take questions. But...

 

No bathroom breaks.

 

No sitting.

 

He cannot leave the floor.

 

He can go for as long as his body can stand and words are coming out of his mouth.

 

Or until he gets killed by a drone.

Rand Paul is doing very very well. My view of him has changed dramatically.

Because he knows which way the wind blows.

 

This isn't his bag.

 

You're probably right.

 

I honestly don't know how he feels about allowing the President, or any other politician, deciding who he or she can kill on US soil.

 

However, he is doing the right thing. I personally feel it is deeper than just going with the wind, but I'm probably wrong.

Rand has to pee. Rand has to pee.

It's over.

And the Senate is adjourned.

and of course Beat Highlands.

12 hours 55 minutes. Longest filibuster in over a decade.

He can pee:

LOL! )

I may be cynical ( and sometimes I am ) but it is obvious to me that Senator Paul has higher political aspirations for 2016 .
