On ABC's This Week, host George Stephanopoulos suggested to Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) that because 26,000 people had signed up for Obamacare on Kentucky's exchange, Senator Paul's home state actually represented a “success story” for the health care law's nationally lampooned roll-out:

One of the success stories, it appears, so far, in your own state, the Kentucky website seems to be doing pretty well. 26,000 Kentuckians have signed up for the exchange. What do you make of that fact-- that so many Kentuckians are signing up, and does that tell you that this program can be a success?

Sticklers for context would insist on pointing out that 26,000 Kentuckians constitute just 0.6% of Kentucky's population, and that twice as many people attended the football game of the last place Kentucky Wildcats just yesterday.

But Senator Paul offered a different perspective:

Nearly 90% of them are signing up for Medicaid, free health insurance from the Government.
