Rand Paul on Palin Endorsement: "What's Not To Love?"

Former Alaska governor took the Kentucky senator's side in a recent spat with New Jersey Governor Chris Christie

Sen. Rand Paul is happy Sarah Palin is on his side.

"I love an endorsement by Sarah Palin, what's not to love?" the Kentucky Republican said on CNN on Tuesday.

Over the weekend, the former Alaska governor and vice presidential nominee said she was on Paul's side in his recent public spat with New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie.

"I'm on team Rand. Rand Paul understands, he gets the whole notion of 'Don't tread on me, government,' whereas Chris Christie is for big government and, you know, trying to go along to get along in so many respects," Palin said on CNN.
