Rand Paul Is Really, Really Trying to Make Last Night About Hillary

Senator Rand Paul‘s immediate reaction last night to big midterm Republican victories was to take a shot at Hillary Clinton. But lest you think that was only meant in passing, Paul really, really wanted to make it about Clinton, almost as if he plans running against her for something in two years…

In addition to his comments to Fox News, Paul also spoke to Breitbart and said, “Somebody should ask Hillary Democrats why they got wiped out tonight. Clearly, Hillary is yesterday’s news.”

And then there’s this, a Facebook photo album Paul set up last night called “Hillary’s Losers”:

Yes, those are all Democrats who lost last night, and who had been backed by Clinton.

(And by the way, if you’re wondering when the 2016 race officially started, this was probably it.)
