Congratulations to Congressman Paul on His Efforts
to Unify Republican Party to Defeat Obama
Las Vegas, Nevada - CCRP Chairman David Gibbs congratulates Congressman Ron Paul on his efforts to unify the Republican Party to defeat President Obama this fall. In a recent statement from the Congressman's campaign, he approved of the RNC focusing its efforts toward Governor Romney's election and endorsed the leadership of Chairman Reince Priebus.
We in the CCRP look forward to working with all Republicans to elect Governor Romney as the next President and to electing conservative Republicans to the Senate, House and offices all across Nevada. "We need to change the make up of Nevada's Legislature so that we can put people back to work and get our government under control," Gibbs says. "We cannot continue spending at the rate we currently are and must focus our state government on improving the economic climate for all Nevadans."
Below please find comments from National Ron Paul Campaign Chairman Jesse Benton:
Ron Paul Campaign Statement Concerning RNC Rule 11
“Chairman Priebus has always treated Dr. Paul and our team with respect, and we appreciate his leadership.” – Jesse Benton
LAKE JACKSON, Texas – Responding to complaints that the Republican National Committee has violated Rule 11 by setting up RNC Victory Operations while Dr. Paul still seeks the nomination, the Ron Paul 2012 Presidential campaign issued the following statement.
“In April, the RNC asked our campaign for our blessing to begin assembling the Victory organization Republicans will require to guarantee a win in the fall. Building such an operation is no small undertaking, and our Party needed to build in a few months what the incumbent president has been building for four years.
“The RNC offered to set up a joint fundraising committee with the Paul campaign and were very clear that if Dr. Paul became the nominee, the Victory Operation would be behind him 100 percent. They also were clear that they would hold off if our campaign objected. I gave my full consent for the RNC to move forward.
“Chairman Priebus has always treated Dr. Paul and our team with respect, and we appreciate his leadership. He has been an outstanding chairman and has our full confidence.”
