Rand Paul's Grand Return: That and More on Tonight's Stossel [UPDATE: Show Postponed Until at Least 10 p.m. Due to Paris Attacks]

Watch Matt Welch and others discuss the 'elephants in the room' at 8 p.m. on Fox Business Network

RandPaulTV

After Tuesday's debate, do you think Rand Paul is back? Well I can tell you that quite a few people involved on tonight's special Election 2016 episode of Stossel (Fox Business Network, 8 p.m. ET [UPDATE: postponed until at least 10 p.m. due to Paris terrorism attacks]) sure think so. I'll be on for most of the show, along with fellow panelists Ben Domenech (publisher of The Federalist) and FBN's Dagen McDowell, comparing candidates' plans and rhetoric on spending, regulation, crony capitalism, immigration, trade, foreign policy, and more.

There will also be a fun segment about John Stossel's previous tussles with Donald Trump, which you can also read about right here at Reason.

I thought his show aired on Thursdays.

[ATXChappy]

I used to be. Unfortunately, they moved it to Friday a while back.

"... but enough about Chris Christie..."

**taps mic**

"Is this thing even on?"

"" tonight's special Election 2016 episode of Stossel ""

Is this like the Special Episode which never aired after the debate? Did that even happen?

[Aloysious]

Hey, Matt. We dare you to wear a large, fake 'stache onto the show. Just for fun.

Prediction: Mustache Parade

[Riven]

Sign me up to "observe."

Also, I'll be attending a ice hockey sporting event this evening so those of you who were hoping for a resurrection of Team Stossel Live Blog, you will be disappointed. I know, it's a bummer, but fuck you, none of you appreciated it even when it was in its prime.

[sarcasmic]

You like Stossel?

[Fist of Etiquette]

I'm a neutral observer.

Rand/'stache 2016.

[Pan Zagloba]

Only if Rand grows a mighty, non-hipster beard. Otherwise, stache is getting the top billing.

[GILMORE?]

How do you distinguish Real Beard from Hipster Beard?

I have no easy answer myself, and instead rely on "I know it when i see it"

[Pan Zagloba]

Yes, it's very hard. My criterion is, if I gave this guy a sword and a fur cape, would I be pissing myself in fear? Could I picture him murdering peasants and dragging women back to the longship?

[mad.casual]

How do you distinguish Real Beard from Hipster Beard?

I'm pretty sure this has nothing to do with the beard.

[Pan Zagloba]

Hipsters overgroom.

[CarmelaBurchard]

Im making over $9k a month working part time. I kept hearing other people tell me how much money they can make online so I decided to look into it. Well, it was all true and has totally changed my life. This is what I do,

I feel like Fox Mulder when discussing Rand's chances. I mean, "I want to believe," but he has been getting curbstomped in the polls, even after this last debate.
RCP has Paul polling thusly:
FL, 11/13, 1 percent
GA 11/13, 1 percent
TX 11/12, 4 percent (Yay!)
AZ 11/11, 1 percent

Etc...

It's just not going to happen, absent a tremendous change of events.

[Fist of Etiquette]

I'll be on for most of the show...

It's almost like it's pretaped that you know that ahead of time.
