But the new rule would stop any and all of those efforts with a silver bullet — freezing the 2012 rules so that no alternatives go into effect this year.
Come parade with me, my fellows!

Ping!
Trump got skewered for not supporting the eventual nominee. The other candidates all said they would support the nominee . They even signed a pledge.
What happened?
Bill Kristol weeps...
THANKS for posting this!
Whoo Hoo!
FWIW.
I have it on personal knowledge that the Trump campaign is actively and aggressively calling the RNC Convention organizers, basically admin people, telling them they should block access to the convention of those delegates that are not fully committed to Trump.
The RNC convention will be the most watched convention in History. Of course the Obama/Hillary media will focus on outside protesters, they will have to cover the speeches and votes.
America will see Trump at his best, it’s going to make the previous conventions look boring, with the exception of some previously made speeches from Palin, and one of my favorites, Pat Buchanan.
On the other hand, the DNC will be scripted and boring, Trump will gain energetic supporters and Hillary will look like the queen of England, old, gray, tired, worthless.
Mr. You has it right.
There was a thread here on FR last week that mentioned the rules committee being stacked with Trump supporters.
So Mr. Trump should be safe from these #NeverTrump idiots.
Good.
Changing the rules after the primaries but before the convention reeks of unfairness and sour grapes.
Any new changes should NOT go into effect until AFTER the Convention.

I would not have expected this kind of corruption from the Republicans who always claim to take the high road. Apparently, in the inner workings they are as bad, if not worse, than the Dems.
Of course, elections are about power and positioning and money. Power corrupts.
it's like Calvin Ball...
