Ron Paul’s backers won’t back down

So state Sen. Bob Beers, who was chairman of the Republican state convention last weekend, shut down the convention because the time had run out on the room at the Peppermill in Reno? If the GOP didn’t have the funds, certainly Mitt Romney could have forked over a bit of his masses to pay for the room for a few more hours if they truly believed they could win support for Sen. John McCain and really wanted to get it wrapped up!

I know, as a staunch Ron Paul supporter, we would have gladly chipped in to foot the bill. The truth is, the McCain-supportive GOP saw that Ron Paul was winning, so they picked up their toys and went home to regroup and come back and fight at a later date. As a cautionary measure, I would like to tell them to “be afraid be very afraid” because we are out there and we plan on going to Minnesota for the Republican National Convention.

And for all those who are contemplating voting for Ralph Nader or some other party in the event Ron Paul isn’t chosen as the GOP’s nominee, and because they refuse to vote for John McCain, let me remind all of them that Nevada does allow write-in votes, so I urge you to write in Ron Paul.
