I am just tired of these guys telling us America is under attack and we all ought to be afraid.  

 

They have some good ideas, but they're selling too much fear for me.   I don't feel that fearful about the future or about terrorists or liberals or anything else.   Someone needs to come along and tell us everything is going to be okay and our best days are ahead of us.   These guys are too depressing for me to get behind any of them. 

 

Glad to see Rand Paul there last night.   I don't agree with a lot of what he says, but he does offer a very valid, intellectually honest contrasting point of view.   Too many of these guys say they will do whatever it takes to defeat our enemies.   Think about that for a second:   "Whatever it takes."   What exactly does that mean?   I'm not sure I want to find out.
