Ron Paul's Revenge

What exactly do Paul's guerrilla warriors plan to do come convention time?
It seems there may be some trouble brewing for this summer's GOP
convention in
St. Paul, Minnesota. You see, another Paul is looming large on the
horizon,
threatening to stir up mischief at the August coronation of John, the
would-be
Baptist of that new and improved sect of Republicanism--Bush-Lite, for
lack of
a better term. As Paul's sup****ters learned from Guy Fawkes, surprise is
the
name of the game.
Virtually all the nation's political attention in recent weeks has focused
on
the compelling state-by-state presidential nomination struggle between two
Democrats and the potential for party-splitting strife over there.
But in the meantime, quietly, largely under the radar of most people, the
forces of Rep. Ron Paul have been organizing across the country to stage
an
embarrassing public revolt against Sen. John McCain when Republicans
gather
for their national convention in St. Paul at the beginning of September.
Yes, he was dissed by Fox News, taunted by his rivals, scorned in the
press,
but Ron Paul is not ready to stop preaching the gospel to his followers.
In
fact, the proselytizing continues apace, and St. Paul's stage is set to
provide the Texas Congressman with ample microphone time.
His sup****ters are quick to add that Paul never actually dropped out of
the
race. No, he does not walk alone. The secret army continues to grow.
Witness
the recent protest votes in Indiana, where 23% of Republicans voiced their
disaffection with McCain. In North Carolina the number was an even higher
26%.
Another libertarian messiah-in-waiting, Bob Barr, entered the race
president
today, giving the disaffected a glimmer of hope on what, to them, seems a
set
of woeful ballot choices.
But back to the Paul faithful. What exactly do Paul's guerrilla warriors
plan
to do come convention time?
They hope to demonstrate their disagreements with McCain vocally at the
convention through platform fights and an attempt to get Paul a prominent
speaking slot. Paul, who's running unopposed in his home Texas district
for an
11th House term, still has some $5 million in war funds and has instructed
his
followers that their struggle is not about a single election, but a
longterm
revolution for control of the Republican Party.
In short, they hope for nothing less that a coup, and we're not talking de
Ville, either. And hey, look who's #1 on the New York Times Bestseller
List.
If you thought that Paul and his sup****ters would simply slip back into
the
Republican tent and make nice with John McCain, you were a tad mistaken.
With
all the potential turmoil, it's a good thing that bars will stay open
until 4
a.m. during the convention. One gets the sense that a few of McCain's
sup****ters will need a good stiff one after dealing with the Paul crowd.
