Rand Paul Speaks On "Divided Government"
KENTUCKY...
Senator-elect Rand Paul of Kentucky says government gridlock isn't necessarily a bad thing, signaling that cooperation with Democrats isn't high on his agenda.
The tea party favorite said debate is healthy and that a divided government is more likely to spend less money.
The Republican told NBC's "Today" show that while people "complain a lot about gridlock," the most fiscally conservative government "is always divided government."
In Tuesday's elections, Republicans won a majority in the House and narrowed the Democrats' majority in the Senate.
