Was this before or after the terrorist attack in Nice? If after, there should have been zero votes for this.

Don’t volunteer to be a delegate if you may had to vote against your conscious.

“Boy, was I wrong about him.”
Yeah, I recall Lee, Rubio, & Cruz riding the Tea Party wave at the beginning. Lee seemed strong. It sounds like DC got to them. I imagine it takes more than most folks have to resist it.

Mittens has lots of money, Mike Lee sold out for cash...what else does a Congressman or Senator in America do these days?

Mike Lee must be totally enamored with Cruz - what is he thinking?
Lee is doing the bidding of Romney. Mormons have become lemming like Hillary enablers. How pathetic is that?

The nevertrumpers are getting a royal beating tonight in the rules committee. Just TROUNCED! They were clearly grossly overstating their meager support.
To: dontreadthis
The delegates are supposed to reflect the primary voters’ choice, not vote their own preferences — that is what being a delegate means.
It’s good that this idiotic notion was defeated.
