MM> Hello everybody.

 I have said, the Republican Party no longer exists. It is now
 the Republican Tea Party. Next election, or the one after, it
 will be just the Tea Party.

 Contact every legislator or former legislator you know who was
 beaten in the primary by a Tea Party candidate. Implore him to
 campaign against the Tea Party candidate.

 I know this will hurt, but it's the only way to keep the
 Republican Party to suffer the fate I named above, becoming the
 Tea Party. It's the only way for Republicans to keep the
 freedom to think for themselves.

 MM> These thoughts are not written by me, but they are written
 MM> by Dave Nalle and I agree with them.

 MM> For those having trouble following the controversy over
 MM> rules changes at the RNC, here they are in a nutshell:

 MM> There are basically three proposed changes.

 MM> First, that the delegates will be bound to vote in
 MM> proportion to the popular vote regardless of how things go
 MM> in our county and state conventions.

 MM> Second, that the presumed nominee or his agents will be
 MM> able to remove or replace delegates from state conventions
 MM> at will.

 MM> Third, that the members of the RNC may at any time between
 MM> conventions change any of the party rules by a 3/4 vote.

 MM> It appears that most members of the Texas delegation are
 MM> now opposing these changes.

 MM> I signed on to the GOP to be part of a real political
 MM> party, not just some pavlovian Punchinello who parades
 MM> around in a pantomime pageant and claps when they ring a
 MM> bell.
