Half the delegates will be carrying their Communist manifesto’s as a guide book.

Maybe not.

Illinois State Senator Long gives a great explanation of why this wouldn’t likely happen, here.

There’s many questions answered, here...

Thanks for the reminder. I'd forgotten about that post.

Here's one of the better comments:

Voting for conservatives is necessary but insufficient. As per Woodrow Wilson's dream, the vast majority of government is out of the hands of our elected reps and senators. One hundred years of experience under popularly elected senators has proved the inadequacy of elections. When it comes to conservatives’ focus on national elections, I'm reminded of Einstein's definition of insanity. As in banana republics, elections here are becoming the Left’s tool to legitimize tyranny. “Obama won, get over it.”
Obama is consolidating all powers. He makes laws, executes laws and increasingly can adjudicate law through administrative courts or his corrupt DOJ. In 2012, every administrative agency was, or potentially was, of service to his campaign. It is way past the time to return un-enumerated powers to where they belong, to the states.

Levin's amendments are superb. They would make the government much more federal than our framers’ design.

Until the national/state division power is once again secured by a senate of the states, there is no hope.
