Rand Paul easily turned back the establishment candidate Trey Grayson tonight in the Kentucky GOP Senate primary with nearly 60% of the vote. 

This is a tremendous victory for the libertarian movement.  It may be looking like the tea party movement is coming together with the Ron Paul libertarians.  First the Maine GOP Platform has elements of both the Paul faction and the tea partiers.  Now, Rand Paul is nominated for the US Senate. 

We are a long way from the 2007 laughter of Cong. Paul in his brave candidacy.  Is it any question who won the 2008 election?  Ron Paul did.  Congrats Rand Paul!
