No, this about the Libertarians. This rules change was forced to the floor by a couple of the state delegations. We actually had a law suit about the Pauler delegates from WA State. There was another from Colorado, I believe, whose delegation promised to take it to the floor of the convention.
People on the East Coast don’t know about the battle that we have been waging against the Libertarians out in the western states. Rush doesn’t seem to have any idea. There was actually an article last week in our local paper about the fight that the Paulers planned for the convention floor.
That’s absolutely no reason to give complete control of the party to the central GOPe bureaucrats.
