Gotta believe Rand is ecstatic about Cheney and Perry bashing him on America's future military role in the Middle East. The Cheneys are so toxic that Liz couldn't even win a Senate primary in Wyoming (the least populated state in the country). Cheney can't shut up and will be forever chasing his precious legacy. Dems didn't want to hear jack from McNamara on Vietnam in '72 and '76. Rand gets to take on an unpopular figure/ideology that will help him in the primaries and in a general election. Dems have to be stoked in the short term-they want Cheney and Palin to be playing their greatest hits between now and November. Impeachment and Iraq/Afghanistan weren't exactly the high points of the conservative movement in recent years. Maybe Trump can also revisit Obama's birth certificate too. Perry's roadkill. His only chance is to be the last social conservative standing and taking on Rand doesn't knock out Cruz, Huckabee, Frothy, Pence.
 
Conservatives are getting scared of Rand. He looks like he will do well with young Pubs. Dems should be scared as well. He stacks up well against Hillary.
 
We'll see about that!

Would have thought that a Senator (especially a first-term one) would have a tough time post-Obama, but just as a Hillary/Jeb race neutralizes weaknesses on both sides, a Rand/Warren race would help each side. GOP is incompetent/insane if they re-adopt neo-con/social conservative policies over Rand's positions. Same applies to the Dems if they don't adopt large chunks of Warren's populist economic agenda.
