The reasons they are having trouble finding a plausible candidate is two fold: one, the last election in Kentucky has weaken the Democratic party, considerably; two, the real reason why no-one want to run against Rand is that they are assuming he can't win and Trump will recive the nomination. That would get most people to just vote the down the Republican ticket, which, ironically, saves Rand. 

Mitch Miconell is a much easier target, and that what every Democratic Senator wannabe is thinking, and losing the race to Rand hurts them when they try to run again in a much more favorable contest.  Perception.

That and the only issue they could run on that has any meat to it is the idea that Rand doesn't care about Kentucky and that why he is running for president.  Foreign policy won't be the determining factor in this election. It's the economy and that where Rand is untouchable .

It seems like Rand is putting it in high gear lately. It seems to be paying off.  He really needs to elevate and break through the media bias. He is a hard worker. He has done a lot of interviews lately.  He comes off as likable, sincere and reasonable. 

initial victory in 2010. Bring it on, if you dare.

Isn't there any way to stop it?

Popular Liberty turned into a mess and Michael played the blame game.  Just like any organization is a reflection of the guys at the top (michael).  It failed because he got disinterested and thought of himself as better than the rest of the liberty community.  Now he is trying to take credit for all the other venues that are being created.  He said himself "I had to push you guys out of the nest so you can fly".  His ego got in the way.  Many of us could have made websites better than his.  We weren't there because he was better than us we were there to be organized as one instead of disorganized as many.  He alone is responsible for the fall of both the dailypaul and Popular Liberty.  I don't blame him though some of us are just not cut out to lead.  Look at RonPaulforums it is doing just fine and has always done well (again a reflection of the guys at the top).  Michael just wasnt the right guy for the job he got weak

Didn't read the link in the post but, as usual, Chuck Baldwin pretty well explains it in his regular thursday column today:
