Writes Mike Allen in Politico:

RAND PAUL BOOK out today, “Taking a Stand: Moving Beyond Partisan Politics to Unite America” —  Chapter 16 (of 17), “Tree Hugger”: “The New GOP has a place for those who want to … provide for a cleaner, brighter future for our planet. In the New GOP, it will be okay to watch Jon Stewart … In the New GOP, it will be just as admirable to defend the Fourth Amendment [searches and seizures] as the Second Amendment. In the New GOP it is cool to compost, shop at the farmers market … That’s the GOP I hope to lead.”

Note: Mike Allen is the great Gary Allen’s son, though there is no ideological kinship, of course.
