But now that the nominating process is over, tonight, I am happy to announce I am supporting Governor Romney.” Rand’s second pick welcomed the endorsement with a very tea party message. “Senator Paul has been a leading voice in the effort to scale back the size and reach of government and promote liberty,” Romney said, adding that he was honored. Father’s Day could get awkward.
