The only one I would vote for is Rand Paul. The way our country is right now..we HAVE to get back to the Constitution or we are going to lose our country FOREVER.

Here’s the real problem for Conway and for Grayson — you can’t tell them apart. They’re so similar that there’s no distinction. If they go head to head, the public is either going to be confused or stay home.
