Yesterday, Joe interviewed David Adams at the Phil Moffett – Mike Harmon circle you-know-what in Lexington.
You notice how Adams hesitated with an awkward pause when asked if he was in the room with Rand Paul during the now-infamous Rachel Maddow segment? That got everybody thinking, wondering, just cold speculatin’.
Looky what’s been dug up:
So, which was it? A track banquet or in the room with Liberty Christ during the meltdown?
I’m not sure how you could attend a banquet in the Lexington area and then make it to Bowling Green in time for something like that. Unless you have a helicopter or a time machine.
UPDATE: Just confirmed with a Maddow staffer that only two people could hear what Rachel was saying to Rand on the evening of that interview: Rand and the camera person.
Sources with the Paul Campaign tell me the only people on-hand that day were Rand Paul, Jesse Benton and the film crew. No David Adams anywhere during that interview.
It’s 5:30 P.M. right now. Emailed David Adams requesting a response and will update if/when we receive it.
UPDATE @ 5:40: Adams just confirmed via email: “Yeah, they are right. My mistake. I was there for many interviews on May 19 but missed that one. Still wouldn’t have done anything differently.”
Good on him for this.

He did it on the wings of a snow white dove.

Interesting…. Adams just sparkles in the limelight. Or maybe that’s the top of his head…

Who cares? If this is the worst dirt you can find on Rand and his party then he’ll be your next Senator from Kentucky. Not sure why I keep bothering to comment here as the owner of this site only allows “pro-Conway” remarks.

Uh, this isn’t about Rand? It’s about David Adams and the new teabaggers.
Re: the rest of your comment – that’s bullshit and you know it. If we’re “pro-Conway” only, then that’s news to 100% of readers.
We moderate people who foam at the mouth about Rand Paul 24/7 and nothing else, such as yourself.

Michael, obviously this isn’t the “worst” dirt that’s been found on Rand Paul.
Where have you been?

Rand Paul’s supporters see him as someone who can force real change in DC. But as the junior senator from Kentucky, with a minority leader senior senator who relies 100 percent on an obstructionist agenda, Rand Paul in DC would be more useless to Kentucky than a third tit on a nun. Maybe even more useless than Jim Bunning.
Who the heck is he, anyway? Nothing Rand Paul says this week is what he’ll be saying next week. Why don’t all those B-A Christian supporters of his object to that much relativism? As literally nothing more than an eye guy from Bowling Green with some fad-capturing “opinions,” he has to create his senator-i- ness out of whole cloth, because let’s face it – he has zero qualifications to be a US Senator. If all that was required was money, time, a network of daddy’s friends and a faux bully pulpit, anyone could be qualified.
The teabaggers will have their 15 minutes of hate-filled fame and then fizzle out, as Americans watch President Obama deliver on more campaign promises more than any other president in modern history, while slowly but surely digging us out of the crater that was the Bush years.
