Except the author of the article failed to mention that half of the Maine delegation was just thrown out and replaced by Romney supporters.

Ron Paul supporters protest in halls of convention

A gaggle of Ron Paul supporters from the Maine delegation led a brief protest in the halls of the GOP convention site, shortly before Paul Ryan was set to take the stage Wednesday night in Tampa.
“As Maine goes, so goes the nation!” they chanted, repeatedly and loudly enough to be heard from inside one of the media booths.
One of the protesters, as they made their way toward the exits, held up a shirt that said: “We are the future.”
Another delegate, Bernie Johnson, said the mini-march was impromptu and indicated he wasn’t expecting theatrics on Thursday for when Mitt Romney delivers his nomination address.

Would have preferred that they saved themselves for tomorrow night and help the boo birds.

Exactly.. DURING prime-time TV, just en masse march right up to the stage and start lobbing rotten veggies at Mitt. If you're going to stage a protest, don't do it when no one is watching and CSPAN doesn't even catch it. BE BOLD :-)

Needed to wait until Tomorrow, when Mitt is on stage, all the prime-time cameras are on.

Just all start walking up to the stage. Huge crowd. Don't let up on the chants. Throw rotten eggs if you can find some.

The Republican Party style of rape, pillage, and plunder of the American people is similar to the Democrat Party style of rape, pillage, and plunder.

You're still getting fucked up the ass either way.

I don't know if we can get rotten eggs in time, but there are bagels, apples, bananas and things like that in the halls on service carts outside the main floor.

There are several articles out there about the USA chant as the Puerto Rican delegate came to the stage. People in Latin America don't understand the context of what was happening, and the YouTube is being passed around as an example of American jinogism.

So this tactic backfired to some degree, and the RNC has has to do some fire-dousing over the videos.

That's what they get for trying to drown Paulians out with that stupid USA! USA! chant.


The RonPaulites, whose furious devotion to a single idea have made them the Ellen Jamesians of the right...

What an ass.

I just put it as my cover photo. That image has some viral potential. What better way to communicate your dissent than by laughing in their faces. What a joke...

Now that is a great logo; however, would something like this be overkill:

Tell the delegates to wear large insignia both in the front and the BACK of their jackets. I suggest they all stand, turn around and stay there. Have all the cameras rolling.

Rushing the stage may not be the best idea.

And ladies, don't even think at throwning shoes like that at Romney during his speech:
