The OP lied?
nope.
The elected Maine delegates were upset that through procedural maneuvers the party denied them the right to sit on the floor--so it was from the balcony they chanted, "Seat Maine now!" and interrupted proceedings to the point that Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus had to ask the audience for "respect."
Uhhh, yuppp..the OP lied!
The OP claims that Maine was not allowed into the convention, yet from his article:
"Paul, the Texas congressman who has inspired a passionate following based on his libertarian ideals, had visited the floor earlier in the day to meet with his supporters.
Though narrowly defeated by Romney in the Maine primary, Paul was able to get supporters into 21 of the 24 delegate spots to the national convention. Romney's camp cried foul and took advantage of procedural rules to diminish the Paul presence. The seated Maine delegation cast 14 votes for Romney and 10 for Paul."
The LEGIT Maine delegation was not allowed to vote. The thieves and cheaters selected 10 mittiots to give Romney the majority there...ya. Can't win just change the rules in your favor...man dictator romney would be scarier than Obama.
