The Kentucky Senate race seems to have taken an ugly turn, after last evening’s debate. Republican Rand Paul had his forth debate with Attorney General Jack Conway (D) last night, and it ended up becoming an argument stemming from Paul’s alleged worship of “Aqua Buddha”.

Rand Paul who is an ophthalmologist, and describes himself as a “constitutional conservative”, was accused in TV ads by Jack Conway of worshipping the “Aqua Buddha”.

According to some reports, while at Baylor University, Paul belonged to a secret society which was banned for being considered “anti-Christian”. The name of this society was the NoZe Brotherhood, which was formed in 1924. One of Paul’s former classmates claims that he and one of his friends blindfolded her and requested that she would worship the “Aqua Buddha”, while taking hits of marijuana. Paul has not admitted to smoking pot, but Conway claims he has smoked it.

During last night’s debate, Rand Paul went off on Jack Conway, for using the whole “Aqua Buddha” incident to make Paul look like a bad candidate. Supporters of Paul agree that what happened in his college years, should not matter so much for the 47 year old from Pennsylvania. Paul accused Conway of questioning his Christian faith, something he doesn’t believe should be an issue in the senate race.

During the debate, Rand Paul said “Jack, have you no decency? Have you no shame?” He then proceeded to tell Conway to “Run on the issues of today”

At the end of the debate, Paul refused to shake hands with Conway. You can watch Jack Conway’s commercial below.

A rather humorous website has been set up mocking Rand Paul for his connections with the Aqua Buddha at: http://aquabuddha.com/

What do you think? Is Conway using unfair tactics in his debate, or are they really something voters want to hear about?
