CINCINNATI - The day after he won election to the U.S. Senate, Rand Paul did the morning talk show circuit.
In one interview he said that he believes the now infamous Aqua Buddha ad put out by the Conway campaign would make politicians think twice before making religion an issue in future campaigns.
Paul plans to put together a caucus of Tea Party backed members of both the Senate and the House of Representatives.
In addition he says he has a very specific goal for day one on the job.
"I am going to introduce the balanced budget amendment and fight hard for it," said Paul.
Senator-elect Paul and his wife Kelley are said to be heading for a vacation to an undisclosed location.
