Bunning Regrets Endorsing Paul

Calling it the lesser of two evils, former U.S. Sen. Jim Bunning surprised political observers when he said he regreted endorsing Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., in the 2010 Senate race.The surly baseball Hall of Famer recently gave a nod to state Rep. Alecia Webb-Edgington to succeed retiring Congressman Geoff Davis, but indicated he's been more tepid since backing Paul two years ago.From Cincinnati Inquirer (h/t FatLip): "I endorsed in the U.S. Senate race," Bunning said. "I took the lesser of two evils there. One person didn’t tell me the truth, and the other person I wasn’t sure what he would do when he got there. He’s disappointed me since he’s got there."Ouch! One can assume that the days of Bunning being Paul's role model have ended.
