2. Why oh why am I thinking of that Charlie Brown TV show...the one where
Snoopy kissed Lucy and she freaked out, running around saying "Ack! My lips have touched dog lips. Get the soap and water! Get the disinfectant!" Maybe Jack had a similar feeling and was relieved when Rand opted out. Completely understandable!!

3. He would have shaken hands with him had Conway pledged
to worship the AquaBuddha. Otherwise, no dice.

If it was, it could become an issue. A spurned handshake helped cost Clayton Williams the Texas governorship in 1990 to Ann Richards. Well that and his "joke" about rape.

7. In his closing remarks, Rand Paul said he won't shake hands with his opponent
So, I think it was obvious.

19. libertarians aren't the ubermensch they like to think themselves to be.
Really, they're just a bunch of spoiled, overprivileged suburban twerps with massive egos. What a bunch of crybabies.

17. I could see Conway on a national ticket in a few years...
He's a very bright guy and a good speaker.

20. Perhaps it was because Conway observed
that an Attorney General really needs to be lectured on the Constitution by a ..."self-certified Ophthalmologist" :rofl:

22. The carpetbagging dullard strikes again.
Like S. Angle flip flops and denies. Aqua Buddah always sounded like a bong name to me.

this morning, they said the debate was so contentious that they refused to shake hands with each other at the end. I didn't see the debate myself. Interesting if they mis-represented the story and it was all Rand Paul's attitude and not Jack Conway's.
