CPAC Seeks To Block Another Ron Paul Victory

Posted on February 9, 2012 by Lew Rockwell

CPAC, the annual gathering of Beltway cons and neocons, has freaked out the last two years as Ron won its presidential straw polls overwhelmingly, thanks to all the young people he was able to attract. The org was especially outraged as the Ron Paul kids in attendance last year failed to give the obligatory adulation to war criminals Cheney and Rumsfeld. So CPAC has changed its voting method, discarding paper ballots for electronic ones, making the election easy to steal. But Ron is not speaking--he's campaigning in Maine--nor is his campaign taking part.

that's a good point. He won the straw poll 2 years in a row and he's not invited back? Pretty obvious they are being anti-Paulbots.

I believe he will be invited, they just wanted to test the waters.

limitgov:
...sorry for the pain I have caused you.

Apology accepted. Please don't let it happen in the future.

On a serious note, I was more asking what this means. Is this going to be pretty bad for Ron Paul, or no big deal? I'm assuming its not going to efftect any primaries or ballots, etc.

It means Ron Paul is not scheduled to speak at CPAC this year. Whether it's "pretty bad" or no big deal I think is a false dichotomy. Paul being shut out of things in the past has come back only to give him support like this...so I'm not so sure keeping him from speaking at a popular event at which he has spoken for the past 3 years (and won the straw poll the last two) will go over very well.

"You either need to learn to use a proxy or wait until you get home. One thread asking people to read crap for you is too much. More than one is unacceptible."

LOL....sorry for the pain I have caused you. On a serious note, I was more asking what this means. Is this going to be pretty bad for Ron Paul, or no big deal? I'm assuming its not going to efftect any primaries or ballots, etc.

I also assume, even a New World Order tool like Hannity will start asking why they haven't invited Rand Paul, which will lead him to talk about not yet inviting Ron Paul which will probably lead to some fake complaining on his part which will lead to them inviting Ron Paul.

Dude. You either need to learn to use a proxy or wait until you get home. One thread asking people to read crap for you is too much. More than one is unacceptible.

What does the article say, I can't get to it from work.

What does this mean exactly if he's taken off the CPAC roster?
