Even the presumed GOP presidential nominee, Mitt Romney, is doing his best to steer clear of the drama expected to unfold at the convention Saturday as Texas Rep. Ron Paul and his legions of devoted supporters work to keep his long-shot candidacy alive.
For the past four years, Paul's supporters have steadfastly taken over state and county party organizations, immersed themselves in delegate selection rules and plotted to circumvent the popular vote that Paul has so far failed to win.

Ron Paul won Nevada, it is official and confirmed, despite irregularities!
Mischief came early at the convention, when a Paul supporter accused the Romney camp of passing out a fake slate of Paul delegates. The list included some known Romney backers.

Actually, you may quit being a hypocrite because it sounds like you're advocating for election fraud against Romney.
So much for complaining about the supposed election fraud being committed against Ron Paul.
Hypocrites.

Romney won Nevada's caucus in February with half of the vote. Under party rules adopted last fall, Romney should get 20 of Nevada's 28 delegates for the national convention. Paul would get eight.
But Paul backers were trying to hold out for a bigger delegate count.
Carl Bunce, Paul's Nevada campaign chairman, has said supporters of the Texas congressman would abide by convention rules, but has also said he can't control what they do if they are named a national delegate. Mischief came early at the convention, when a Paul supporter accused the Romney camp of passing out a fake slate of Paul delegates. The list included some known Romney backers.
Romney's son, Josh Romney, received wide applause when he told the convention Nevada is important to his father's presidential quest.
"We've been campaigning hard here," he said. "My dad's going to be here a lot."
But when chants of "Mitt, Mitt, Mitt" erupted at the end of his speech, they were quickly drowned out by shouts of "Paul, Paul, Paul" by the large contingent of Paul supporters.
Four years ago, party officials shut down the state convention when it appeared Paul would take most of Nevada's delegates to the national convention. This year backers of the conservative Texas congressman have taken control of the Republican Party in Clark County, the state's largest, and claimed a large share of seats on the state GOP central committee.
Besides the chaos of the convention four years ago, the Nevada GOP suffered national embarrassment when it took two days to count February's caucus results in Clark County. Last month the central committee elected Michael McDonald state party chair, the party's fourth since late 2009.

The GOP, MSM, and supposed presumed GOP Nominee Mitt Romney all disagree with you.
You may quit trolling now.
if he gets 10% of the republican vote, he'd get about 5% of the general election. he doesn't need to be stopped. this is as silly as the rogue delegates theory
at least you've moved on from the voter fraud excuse
this place will be something else when the reality becomes final.
ATS will need a "ron paul was robbed" forum just to keep up with it

Ron Paul probably gets most of his funding from George Soros (disguised of course).
Thanks to the Ron Paulites, we will have Obama re-elected.
When does it dawn on the Paulites that they have been used?
