This was actually a big deal on conservative sites when it happened. I believe someone said that if it had been in place in 1980, Reagan would not have qualified. But I could be wrong.

i think I recall that

[RIghtwardHo]

Yeah, I seem to remember that. Always good to remind us though. the GOPe run the show.

Another reason they have to go.

When I was upset about something last election, my much younger (and obviously more keen) cousin said to me: why get upset. There is no distinction between either party. They are all the same guy.

Smart kid.

It was all part and parcel of the cheating and rule changes last election. Florida held their primary early, and by the rules, should have only had 1/2 of their delegates seated. All were seated, since they wanted Romney.

The GOP-E cheats, and they hate you because you are a conservative.

You are wrong about the 1980 convention....this rule change would have prevented Reagan’s name from being entered in the 1976 convention

I remember it well. They passed it by voice vote even though the Nays were louder.
