Rand Paul might be slipping in the polls and in the battle for money, but his campaign is marching on and believes everyone needs to "get over" Paul's dark horse status.

That was the Kentucky senator's message Tuesday during a moment of candor when he answered whether he was still running for president, one of the top questions on Google about Paul and his campaign.

"The third question, most popular from Google is: 'Is Rand Paul still running for president?'" Paul said reading the question.

"Well, I don't know, I wouldn't be doing this dumb--- livestreaming if I weren't, so yes I still am running for president, get over it," said Paul, who currently sits 10th in the Washington Examiner's latest power rankings.
