Rand Paul defends country club celebration

Rand Paul, the newly elected GOP Senate nominee from Kentucky, defended holding his victory celebration at a private country club in an interview today with ABC. He's running as an anti-establishment candidate.

Golf clubs aren't exclusive, Paul said, because Tiger Woods has "brought golf to a lot of the cities and city youth and so, no, I don't think it is as nearly as exclusive as people once considered it to be." :eyes:

5. He said, as he lit a havana with a hundred-dollar bill...
"Now I must retire to my study to enjoy a glass of cognac with my corporate sponsors. So nice of you to attend, Jeeves will see you out the back. Good day"
