What was the RNC thinking - are their lawyers a bunch of RATS?

The RNC was undoubtedly trying to get folks to buy products from them to boost their coffers. I remember when political bumperstickers, hats, etc used to be given away. Now campaigns want folks to buy them.
Having said that, statements like "We figured that there’s got to be something in our Constitution that would guarantee our shopkeepers the right to speak openly about political issues…" are moronic. Anyone, even political parties, have the right to protect their intellectual property.

It isn’t a free speech issue unless vendors are giving away t-shirts for free..
