Ron Paul Weekly Update - July 7th thru July 13th

The campaign had a fleeting moment of excitement this week, as liberty activists in Nebraska fought for the unbound delegates at that state's Republicans convention. Apparently, the Romney forces there won convincingly, denying Dr. Paul a clear plurality in his fifth state. While Paul delegates have rightfully won the majority of delegate slots in several states during the course of these state conventions, only delegates from Maine, Minnesota, Iowa, and Louisiana are officially unbound. This would lead us to assume that Dr. Paul will not be able to force his way into the RNC in August, yet more pundits all the time are making the case that he most certainly should be welcome at the Rom-i-nee coronation. If Congressman Paul and Governor Romney had such a great relationship throughout the campaign, surely Mittens would invite the good doctor, no? The last thing the movement would want to see is a Rand Paul speech full of familiar Republican red-meat! As I had long suspected, we are starting to see that  commentators who had formerly been hostile to Dr. Paul will suddenly begin to praise him, now that he nears retirement from political office.
