The angst among Ron Paul delegates, some of whom walked out of the convention Wednesday night in protest of recent party rules changes, hasnt abated in Tampa. Theres talk of another protest Thursday night, prompting an open letter from Arizona alternate delegate Edward Vallejo imploring his fellow Ron Paul supporters not to air their grievances publicly at this time.

I think Lew Rockwell had a great response to this question.
"Don't air your grievances," say some delegates to their colleagues, behavior Politico describes as copying Ron Paul. But, folks, if you really want to emulate this great gentleman, leave the RNC snake pit, as he did on Tuesday. Go quietly and without fuss. Go back to your lives. Just skedaddle. Go. Get out of there. Believe me, it will be good for your spirits. And it is a great political statement: that you refuse to be abused by the scum of the earth.

Leaving probably would be the best message Ron Paul delegates could send at this point. I certainly don't think they should make any kind of spectacle of themselves.
