Rand Paul: I won't participate in another undercard debate

Paul, who polled at 4% in a survey released Wednesday, could be sent to the undercard debate, Politico reported Tuesday, along with Ohio Gov. John Kasich and former HP CEO Carly Fiorina. Paul was not too pleased with the prospect that his campaign had lost steam.

“I won’t participate in any kind of second-tier debate,” he said on Fox News Radio’s Kilmeade and Friends. “We’ve got a first-tier campaign. I’ve got 800 precinct chairman in Iowa. I’ve got a 100 people on the ground working for me. I’ve raised 25 million dollars. I’m not gonna let any network or anybody tell me we’re not a first-tier campaign. If you tell a campaign with three weeks to go that they’re in the second-tier, you destroy the campaign. This isn’t the job of the media to pick who wins. The voters ought to get a chance.”
