Republicans REFUSE TO ALLOW MAINE DELEGATES TO ENTER CONVENTION HALL

[Dissent]

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.

That's not what the OP was about.

Take your anger or whatever and BE PRODUCTIVE with it.

 

[Dissent]

How about NEITHER. We hold grudges. I won't help get Obama re elected the republican party is doing that all by themselves by nominating willard the nazi romney as its candidate. The man has lost so many bases in the past week its not even funny....ok yeah actually it is funny...I will vote for who shares my beliefs and that sure in the hell ain't willard. You can cry about helping re elect Obama all you want. But no one cares.

I watched the roll call. Maine was in the convention hall and cast all their votes for Ron Paul.

Ron Paul delegates protest treatment by Romney campaign

At a rally of his supporters at the Sun Dome Arena in Tampa, Florida, several voiced their frustration with successful efforts to unseat Paul delegates in three states.

Ashley Ryan, a Paul delegate from Maine, drew a standing ovation at the rally when she said she was proud of Maine Gov. Paul LePage, Bloomberg reported on its Political Capital blog. He has refused to participate in the convention because the credentials committee unseated half of the state's 20 Paul convention delegates. A Romney supporter, LePage announced Aug. 24 that he wouldn't attend the convention, saying in a statement that it was "unfortunate that not all of these delegates" selected at the state Republican Party convention will be seated."

Becoming the youngest member of the Republican National Committee will place Ashley Ryan firmly within the GOP establishment this week, but the 21-year-old Ron Paul devotee insists her party is about to make a fatal mistake.

This is unconscionable. Short-changing one's own party

 

[rdean]

Republicans are divided from every minority in America. Understandable they should be showing division.
