Another tells me, “They’ve gotten social conservatives comfortable with the platform and now that they’re placated [Team Romney] is going to undercut them with this change.”

It's not over!! Romney is trying to give us the go around

Mark Levin just posted on his Facebook page:

"Scheduled guests tonight: Sarah Palin @7:30pm est & Richard Mourdock @8:30pm"

This is gonna be good...!

This type of change will have a great impact down the road. ABO's - let us take note - imagine how conservatives will get to sit at the back of the bus and shut up if and when he is elected. And the truly perverse thing is that we have to rid ourselvs of Obama.

Conservatives are to the republicans what blacks are to the democrats: voters taken for granted and then poorly served.

From Michelle Malkin:

Update 2:50pm Eastern

…The Rules Committee just voted 78-14 to accept the Romney-approved deal on Rules 15(16) and 12. There is now an effort to gather enough signatures to force a floor vote on the minority report. 25 percent of committee members are needed.

Apparently, the Virginia delegation was stuck on a bus and didn’t make it in time for the vote.

Will he fight Obama this hard? No.

I hear many people here blaming the Ron Paul people for this, but this is simply not true. It is Romney and Boehner’s fault.

It is not just Ron Paul supporters who were hurt by this coup by the RNC elite. I am a Tea Party founder and have worked extremely hard for the last three years trying to get conservatives voted back in to the Republican party at the national AND local levels.

It is disheartening to realize I wasted my time and it was all for nothing. I have “put myself out there” and argued with co-workers, lost friends, etc.

I know that I am not the only one. Many other conservatives, libertarians, and others lost some faith today.

The Sovietization of the RNC and the Republican party is almost complete. And most of the assembled delegates went right along with it.

Disgusting.

I’m not convinced Mitt is behind this, why on earth would Mitt want to divide the republican party against itself at a time like this?

Does Mitt want to lose? Why did the guy who proposed and pushed this change even propose it? It goes against the very foundation of everything we have been fighting for for the last few years. Is he trying to completely destroy our party and chances of winning?
