Rand i like very much, but i don't think he's going to secure a nomination unless he just comes out swinging and blows everyone away in the primary season. he's too "odd" for the Republican establishment (aka money) to back. i can't say for sure how he would do in the general against Hillary. it would all depend on whether his strategy of courting young and minorities with his outside-the-Republican-box policies would work. i personally think they could, but who knows for sure.

I for one  would love to see Rand and Hillary debate.  He is so back and forth on many of his opions I think she would wipe the floor with him.  But it would be fun.

I thought she actually beat Obama in most, if not all of their debates.  She is a very sharp person. 

If Rand wins the primary be prepared for his beliefs to become crystal clear. The only reason it seems as if his beliefs are back and forth now is beause there are like five factions in the Republican party that he needs to appease in the following order: Neo-cons, libertarians, Paleo-Cons, Religious Right, and Moderates. 

Neo-cons because they are the current establishment of the Republican party and nobody can get past the primary without their support. 

Libertarians because they form his father's and his core-base. 

Paleo-Cons , for much the same reason as libertarians. 

Religious right, and moderates hold some power and you need some of their support if you want to win the general election.
