How many people here have a cellphone? Mr. Paul asked the audience, according to Breitbart News, How many people think its none of the governments damn business what you have on your cellphone?

Ive been thinking thats true, Mr. Paul continued. But Im really, really worried about Anthony Weiner. Because you know he likes to take his selfies, and hes had trouble finding a place to put them where the government cant find them. So Im thinking maybe Anthony Weiner should put his selfie in Lois Lerners emails.

Mr. Paul was in New Hampshire, site of the nations first presidential primary, for political events Thursday and Friday, only fueling speculation he is considering a 2016 White House run. The Kentucky Republican has said he will formally decide whether to run early next year, but admitted to local reporters that he hasnt discouraged the presidential speculation.

Rand Paul, 'I smell victory'

MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, a possible Republican candidate for president in 2016, whipped up the faithful in a visit to New Hampshire on Friday, lighting into President Barack Obama and the states mostly Democratic congressional delegation.

Headlining a Unity Breakfast in Manchester, Paul maintained that Obama had overstepped his authority by leaving Congress out of key decisions including the use of military force in Iraq and Syria.

Does this not scare the you-know-what out of you? Paul asked to cheers from the 350 Republicans, including the entire slate of statewide candidates and most of the candidates they defeated in Tuesdays primary.

Later Friday, Paul endorsed Scott Brown for U.S. Senate against incumbent Democratic Sen. Jeanne Shaheen. Brown is the former senator from Massachusetts who moved to New Hampshire in December and won Tuesdays primary to set up a run against Shaheen. Paul faulted Shaheen for supporting Obamas agenda, including health care overhaul, but tied it all to one theme.

The top of the list is his disregard for the constitution, Paul said.

Paul implored Republicans to work together after a sometimes testy primary, saying they could win in November and help retake control of the Senate.

I dont see division. I see unity and I smell victory, he said.

At the University of New Hampshire, Paul and Brown tailored their message to the students, warning that todays policies will affect their lives on topics including job creation, student loans, higher tuition, immigration and foreign policy.

We really have a problem in our country, Paul said, leaning toward a familiar theme of government overreach. We have a country where the government has run amok.

Paul has visited the important early-voting state several times during the past two years. He says hell decide whether to run for president in the spring.
