The level of commitment and preparation shown by the Paul
supporters is refreshing and inspiring. Too bad it can be so easily
counteracted by a handful of smarmy political power bosses within the party
elite. I guess conventions were never meant to decide anything. The McCain
people are working overtime to prevent a single boo, a wayward hiss, or a
lonely Ron Paul banner from materializing at the national convention. They need
not worry. Any and all embarrassments can be easily sanitized by the complicit
media outlets.

Convention

Paul Supporters a "Super-Majority" at Nevada GOP
Convention
From the Reno Gazette-Journal:
"After a super-majority of Ron Paul supporters captured
control of the Republican state convention Saturday, state party officials
abruptly canceled the event without electing delegates to the national
convention.
"Early in the day, state delegates supporting Paul's
continued pursuit of the Republican nomination voted through a rules change
that forced the state party to abandon its preset ballot of potential national
convention delegates and open up the race to the rest of the state delegates.
"The vote followed a rousing speech by Paul of Texas, who
said his presidential campaign will continue as long as he has support.
"But as the convention continued into the evening, chairman
Bob Beers said the party's contract for the hall at the Peppermill Resort
Casino had expired and the event would be rescheduled."
