Bluegrass Politics reports:

FRANKFORT – It won’t be available for holiday gifts this year but U.S. Sen.-elect Rand Paul of Bowling Green is writing a book entitled “The Tea Party Goes to Washington.”

The book will be about Paul’s plan and the Tea Party’s platform “to bring the U.S. government more in line with the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, to stop spending money the country doesn’t have, to stop borrowing, to balance the budget and reduce the size of the government,” said a release Monday from its New York publisher, Center Street.

Paul, a Republican and a favorite of the Tea Party movement, defeated Democratic state Attorney General Jack Conway earlier this month to replace retiring GOP U.S. Sen. Jim Bunning of Northern Kentucky.

Paul could not be immediately reached for comment about the book. His campaign manager, Jesse Benton, said in an e-mail, “Stay tuned for more, it is sure to be exciting.”
