Rand Paul endorses Mitt Romney on Hannity

Kentucky Senator, Rand Paul, endorses Mitt Romney on Sean Hannity on June 7th, 2012.  After Senator Paul supported his father Ron Paul throughout his father's 2012 campaign since he was 11 years old, he has now shifted his support to Mitt Romney for the 2012 election against Obama.  Dr. Ron Paul has officially dropped out of the race and ended his campaign as Governor Romney has now clinched enough delegates after this last Tuesday's election in many states gave Romney enough delegates to clench the Republican Party nomination. 

Paul family and many Libertarian supporters were outraged on the internet and YouTube at Senator Rand Pauls comments. Comments such as "What a disgrace you are Rand !" and "This is disgraceful. If my father ran for president, I would stand by him until after the election, even he had no chance. We will prove all delegates are unbound (August is a ways away) and Rand can be kicking himself when Ron gives his acceptance speech and Rand gets nothing. RP'12" have received top thumbs up status so far.


The Libertarian Party issued an official press release recently calling Rand Paul’s endorsement or Governor Romney a betrayal of the Libertarian principles and of his own father’s (Ron Paul) politics.  Some have speculated that Romney has already talked to the Paul family and have promised positions to either Ron Paul or his son Rand.  Many are now questioning if Ron Paul supporters will eventually support Romney in the 2012 general election as many of them were torn by Rand Paul's endorsement of Romney.
