Breaking: Senator Rand Paul Suspends Presidential Campaign

Senator Rand Paul will suspend his presidential campaign Wednesday morning.

Paul released a statement early today.
Via ABC:

“It’s been an incredible honor to run a principled campaign for the White House,” Paul said in a statement. “Today, I will end where I began, ready and willing to fight for the cause of Liberty.”

Paul finished fifth in Monday’s Iowa caucuses with 4.5 percent of the vote — behind rivals Ted Cruz, Donald Trump, Marco Rubio and Ben Carson.

“Although, today I will suspend my campaign for President, the fight is far from over,” Paul continued. “I will continue to carry the torch for Liberty in the United States Senate and I look forward to earning the privilege to represent the people of Kentucky for another term.”
