The Romney lawyers are running the NDGOP convention according to former Chairman Gary Emineth. #ndpol

yeah what a surprise

 

[DanConway]

NDGOP pulling tricks to ramrod Romney through. Why am I not shocked?

Oh well, this is what we came for. This is how we knew it would be. Hope our supporters can pull it off!

Stein just told a delegate: "Get your eyes checked" - in response to delegate saying he can't read the names on the screen. #ndgop2012

I could never become a delegate because I would have told that man to go fuck himself. Seriously, does politics automatically take away any type of manners that people have?

This has become my Saturdays. Anxiously watching twitter feeds for GOP Convention updates LOL

Show of hands - still seems divided, but ruling is to proceed to balloting now. #ndgop2012

Welcome to my new campaign twitter account! I look forward to helping keep North Dakota moving forward!

It seems like Romney has a good amount of support, but not a majority. If he did, this would have been done thirty minutes ago.


Best thing we can hope for is to create a Paul-Santorum slate, laugh in the NDGOP's face, and pick up some delegates. Its clear the establishment tried to rig this for Mitt

Man do I hate parsing Twitter feeds. Wish folks would just type an e-mail that can be forwarded out, or post on a blog.

In the preliminary delegate selection, delegates were ranked based on how long they've worked for the gop #ndgop #ndgopconvention #ronpaul

Well...there in lies our problem

Yup, purely an attempt to shut Ron Paul out.

I'm trying to find a host on ronpaulradio who will anchor and take calls from reporter/delegates on Saturday May 5 from Nevada and Maine.

I pitched the idea to 2 hosts but they don't think it will work. It would be cool if it did. It would be impossible as a delegate to call in during the floor fights. We'd need a non-delegate reporter able to duck into a closet to narrate the floor fights and the arrival of the SWAT teams, etc.

Twitter reminds me of what it would be like to scatter a few hidden microphones in a crowd... you hear little snippets of conversation with little relation to each other and no context.

Sometimes you can pick out a few people that are replying to each other and discussing something, but it's such a mess overall.

I mean seriously, the old text-only FidoNet bulletin boards we had in the 1980s did a better job of organizing threads and delivering information.

I agree, but its really the only link we have to the event live. No MSM outlet is going to cover it, so we're stuck with tweets
