"Maybe there is hope for California..."
I hold out similar sentiments for PA. But I guess we should not hold our breath.

i was there. this came completely out of nowhere for the majority of us. there were no where enough copies for each of us to read, and so we demanded that it be read to us. the motion passed. it was read. naysayers tried to shut it down. they were defeated. the delegates on the floor, close to 3/4s of the crowd were obviously impressed with the text and DEMANDED that it be accepted as the new platform. the chairwoman was obviously taken aback at the thought, but true to her trust, she soldiered on and a vote was taken. it passed. but immediately - for some reason not clear to me- she insisted that we vote on it again. again it was passed by at least 3/4 of the assembled delegates. on its first reading, completely unknown heretofor. it was a great GREAT victory for freedom and Constitution lovers in Maine. and it was clearly the hand of God, for those who recognize such things...
