The Triumph Of The Reich-Publican Party

"There’s nothing American about what just happened," protested Nevada Republican delegate Wiselot Rouzard after the convention refused to seat the delegation from Maine. "This is the death of the Republican Party."

What Wiselot and fellow Ron Paul delegates had experienced was a memorable display of the Republican Party’s fetid essence. The tactics employed by the GOP establishment to isolate, intimidate, and ultimately to expel Ron Paul delegates were the natural product of the party’s totalitarian genetics. By using criminal means to impose a monolithic, top-down process in which an entrenched oligarchy can re-write the rules to suit its whims, the Republican Party was simply living down to its odious pedigree.

This is an example of how our current president will get reelected...a number will now not vote for the 'established' republican candidate...while they may not vote to reelect, that vote is lost in the Party's effort to defeat the incumbent. Remember Ross Perot? His run, had it been negotiated and included in the Republican platform, could have been part of the Bush (elder) reelection success.

ron paul was not the nominee. get over it and move on. there is a Clear Choice this cycle. a NO vote is a vote for obama. a vote for paul or anyone else is a vote for obama and sitting out this cycle is a vote for obama.

if you think you will ever have the Perfect candidate that meets All your expectations and needs; you are delusional at best. you just have stinking thinking. do all your friends, family, neighbors and associates agree with Everything you say or believe? i don't think so. case closed.

vote for romney this cycle. vote republican as if your life and the future of our nation depends on it; because it does. at least give our children and grandchildren a fighting chance and perhaps a future to build on. it's in your hands now.
