NBC's Chuck Todd had to ask Republican presidential candidate Rand Paul whether he's actually still running. The question came in an interview yesterday:

"I looked at your campaign schedule: the last public event you had was on December 16 that was in Nevada after the last debate. You haven't been Iowa since I believe the 12th — New Hampshire before that," said Todd. "I have to ask senator, what's going on? Two weeks off the campaign trail, are you still fully running?"

Rand Paul laughed. "You know I also believe in being with my family," Paul said, before saying he's been performing surgeries, raising money, and attending to his Senate job.
