Rand Paul calls Clintons 'corrupt' at Fern Creek town hall

LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) - Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul hit the campaign trail in WAVE Country on Monday.

He addressed a town hall meeting at the Fern Creek Community Center, where he also talked presidential politics.

Paul began with tongue-in-cheek jokes about Bill and Hillary Clinton -- before laying out his more serious points -- saying he thinks they do not respect the constitution or the office.

"If you're selling your political service -- and selling speeches to entities that have business before your wife, that is corrupt," Paul said. "That is a conflict of interest and really it should not be tolerated."

He'll face Democrat Jim Gray, Lexington's mayor, for his senate seat in November.
