Why Moving Florida's Presidential Primary

To January 31, 2012 Hurts Our State

 

HERE FOLLOWS THE SUMMARY:

Our full allotment of delegates is: 99

After the three officers are removed our base becomes: 96

Cutting us as the penalty, we get only: 48

 

With the total delegates available in the six or seven states that are attempting to go before Florida, there will only be 212 delegates available. With a normal distribution of delegates among the candidates it is probable that several candidates will have 75 or 80 delegates if they are in the lead. Florida would be in a position to really lock up the lead and momentum for a candidate if it voted to go March 1,2,3,4 or 5 and still had its full allotment of 99 delegates. There is no penalty provided in the RNC Rules for those five days. It would be possible, with the proper definition of proportionality for a candidate to get 60 to 80 of Florida’s delegates and thus have a nice lead. (Again IF we were at full strength)

If Florida goes as early as is being discussed (January 31), we will have little, if any, impact on the delegate count for any candidate. Further, we will be slapping the RNC in the face after they gave the convention to Florida and we have not given the new rules a chance to see if they work.

 

Moving the date will cut our delegation in half and diminish the voice of the people, us.  This is due to one man's grab at power and will silence the voice of the people, us.  Please take a moment and make an urgent call to John Thrasher's offices.

 This "Invasion of Wall Street", threats by Jesse Jackson, "warnings of Bloomberg", the nonchalance of Hussein, Axelrod, Rahmmie, etc., are setting a tone of intimidation.  I say, buy more ammo, more "streetsweepers", etc.  These types will employ tactics of Al Qaida (black panthers) in the similar mode they used in Philadelphia, during last elections.  The fact Eric Holder refused to prosecute them, was a message in and of itself.  I propose every teapartier take a month off (STRIKE) from December 1st to January 2nd.  Call in sick.  Quit.  A national strike.  Answer no phones.  Stay at home, spend as little money as possible (the dollar is no good anyway).    Give the socialists a dose of their own medicine.

I second the emotion of Richard Horton.  It looks as though the Southeastern state's GOP are really "agents provacquateur" of the northerners.  Proves to me, that in the GOP, Carpetbaggers still reign supreme.  It renders the southern conservatives ineffective and inert.  Its the classic manure to cut off one's nose to spite one's face.  All the more reason to start a true conservative party.  I know while I'll be donating to a Tea Party candidate, Repub-Rinos will receive nothing from me; primarily from the actions taken with our loss of delegates via this primary date change.

South Carolina moved their primary up yesterday to get back ahead of Florida.   they too will lose half of their delegates.  This story made national news.

Any thoughts on moving the repub primer to be the LAST one before the convention?  I don't know the scheduling, but with ALL the delegates in play, it should make for great headliners, even for the MSM.

Moving the primaries is something that has been done recently in the past.  Charlie Crist managed to get the primaries moved in 2007 and now this has happened...and all this in-fighting makes the party look fractured...my personal opinion is that one man alone could not have done this...the people who voted to move this primary need to be answering questions and showing us we have nothing to fear from this decision...

A Statement made by Mr. Netties stands out. Paul and Cain are both good men and I would vote for them.   I would hope they run on the same ticket. p and vp.

Registered Non Affiliated. This is a pary problem and let the Party fix it. In 2008 this is the exact same decision that was made then, by both parties. There has to be some means to conduct primaries. They held a party convention back then in 2008. Certainly this came up. What was the result?

Obama elected with no papers; Strategy to suspend election

There’s a piece in the Canada Free Press, Judi McLeod, warning the threat of suspended elections is real.

A dangerous new chapter is being written in American history that if successful is destined to impact the history of the West. It’s called reelection by suspended election revolution. With absolutely no proof of who he really is, Barack Obama made it to the Oval Office in 2008. There was no media vetting of the largely absentee senator from Illinois who even back then had the temerity to compare himself to Abraham Lincoln. All anyone had to go on was an autobiographical book now suspected of being ghostwritten.

Richard Horton:

Thanks for picking up on my sarcasm.

My question is this: Instead of everyone contacting state officials to tell them they were wrong to fight the RNC's rules on when primaries are scheduled, why not contact the RNC and put pressure on them to change THEIR rules?

Talk about fighting an establishment that works to silence us, that's where the true battle lies.

While I too don't exactly understand the reprecussions of this change of date for FL primary, it is quite obvious the GOP Washington D.C. establishment plua Karl Rove, Dick Morris, Ann Coulter, Bill Cristol, Hannity, Fox News (yes, Fox News) , and the Liberal news media are doing everything in their power to make sure that Mitt Romney is the GOP candidate.  Sometimes they are flagrant, sometimes subtle.  If they would demonize Romney the way they are Perry for example (with all Perry's issues he is still a Conservative....Jeb Bush even supports him on his illegal in-state college tuition issue), but they don't touch or even mention Romney with his Romneycare, support of gun control, his "path to citizenship" for illegals, his large financial support of Planned Parenthood, changing marriage certificates from husband and wife to partner A and partner B even BEFORE same-sex marriage was law, and his belief in human global warming.  This is not the agenda of a Conserative, but politics as usual.  Floridians must work hard before the Primary, no matter when it is, to make sure we get a Conservative presidential candidate and not let others pick the candidate for us.

RYAN NICHOLS - Hardened Criminal?? Seriously??

If you're not already aware. This is what's going on in DC while dangerous criminals are allowed back out on the streets.  It's horrifying that this is happening to our citizens and veterans for protesting the hijacking of our election process. This is still happening! They are STILL being tortured and treated like full on terrorists. 

You may not be aware of the typical things they're forced to go through...…
