More about Curly Haugland (this from 2014)

They planned in advance to take away the voice of We the People.

Whoever has the most delegates should get the nomination. Even if that means my guy loses.

[nickcarraway]

Everybody thinks it’s going to happen, but I think it’s still less than 25%. The RNC is not going to challenge Trump if he wants it.

[FreedBird]

The GOP plans to make millions of voters resentful and angry at the convention. What a bunch of self-serving parasites!

[FreedBird]

If Trump is not treated right by the RNC, he will make sure the world knows.

[nickcarraway]

What if it’s the opposite?

[nickcarraway]

I think you are missing the point. The RNC isn’t going to challenge him in the convention. And he is free to switch parties if he gets elected.

[FreedBird]

The RNC should be happy someone is helping register new GOP voters. Those new voters are not going to vote for Hillary Clinton this time.

[bgill]

Hope they enjoyed their time ruling us because after that they may need to get their resume in order.

Kasich is everything the GOPe dream about, a putrid, sweater wearing, kissy kissy, Globalist, Open Border, puke.

“For instance, it isn’t inconceivable to think that Gov. Chris Christie, R-N.J., could dominate the Northeast, with Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky. performing well in the South and Gov. Scott Walker, R-Wisc,, racking up victories in the Midwest”

Nailed it, two years out. Amazing !!

Curly Haugland to the People: FUCK YOU!

[SueRae]

Nice find!! Thanks for posting this.

Oh, what a tangled Web they weave..

“Every primary, every caucus, will essentially be a beauty contest,” Haugland says of 2016. “Now, those results will be persuasive to delegates that go to the convention. But the delegates to the Republican convention are going to choose the next presidential nominee. Nobody will have the majority of delegates from eight states before the convention.”

Wow. Nice to know what we are up against.

Curly Haughland doesn't think we should even hold the primaries. It's the delegates that should nominate the party candidate. WHen asked why we are even holding the primaries, Curly said, that's a very good question. CNBC video

Who does Curley report to (boss)? How did he get into his position? What can we do to put Curley into an unemployment line?

[Girlene]

He’s a N Dakota rep on the RNC. He helped set up the rules for the Rep. Convention. He’s just one example of the entrenched establishment machine that needs to be broken (figuratively, of course).

[Repeal 16-17]

I wouldn't be surprised if Curly tries to amend Rule 40 so that the delegates can nominate whomever that want even if Trump enters the convention with at least 1237 delegates.
