Curley is an undaunted in his approach as he holds the record in rules committee defeats. He claims to be laying the groundwork for his greatest victory ever and is an inspiration to those holdouts that refuse to come to terms with the distinct possibility of the Trump presidency.
We need a Moe to poke Curly in the eyes.
Curly can suck an egg. Morton Blackwell from VA is higher up in the food chain in the RNC and a reliable source has conveyed that there will no rules changes as per Rinse Prewash and decided on by the rules committee. He is blowing hot air.
Someone needs to put this guy on 10,000 CC’s of Thorazine a day and put in a rubber room till after the convention is over.
Poke Curly in the eyes? Good idea, then he couldn’t read his RNC Rule book anymore.
So, Curly Haugland has been a crypto-Democrat all these years?
I don’t know this guy Curly Haugland, but I do know a guy who came pretty darn close in 1976 in North Dakota politics. See my Freeper page for details.
Trump gets the nomination or the country burns.
Angry white people don’t burn cities. We burn continents.
So the RNC has told the convention rules committee to stand down? Just as they did at the Spring RNC convention.
How many delegates are on the rules committee?
The two cruzers from Colorado are a problem: Unruh & Little.
Curly is a blowhard who bought his seat from the ND GOP Party. He has no power.
Yep! The NeverTrump movement is being dismantled. Heard this at the VA State and 1st CD conventions.
“Hes the mainstream GOPs last hope to deny Donald Trump...”
________________________
The “Mainstream GOP” is behind Trump. It’s the dinosaur GOPe clingers-on who oppose him, and will be left behind.
Sounds like he has a serious personality disorder.
“...but there is still a way, buried in the labyrinthine rulebook...”
Yet these anti-American GOPe bastards can’t do the obvious ways, openly exposed in our COTUS, to deal with Obama, SCOTUS, trade agreements, state control, and on and on.
I vote NO CONFIDENCE on GOPe.
I am not an expert but if a state can block a candidate from a federal ballot then they are taking away Constitutional rights. Shouldn’t all federal offices be outside the domain of state law?
The article is very long, but Curly has tried to change the outcome of elections and the selection of the RNC party chair, as well. He has been at this for decades and this is his ‘pet project.’ If no one favors him, he needs to be replaced within the hierarchy of the party. Why is he still here?
It is a great thing that Donald Trump will walk into Cleveland with an ample surplus of delegates and the greatest number of votes every accumulated during a primary election.
Anything close to 1237 would be opening the door to the chipping away process.
Nuclear options presume delivery as intended.
First-ballot “vote for whoever you want” may very well result in a landslide for Trump. Seriously: who is going to vote for flamed-out candidates? (I voted Cruz, but given a second chance as a delegate may very well change my mind.)
Apparently he hasn’t heard of sections .223 and .45 of the American rulebook. Go ahead there, Curly sue...I dare you.
