Part of the problem is that the party works top down in most states anyway, it certainly does in Mississippi, the stae convention was scripted and committes such as nominating and rules were set and it was practically impossible to get anything they didn’t want in. The same applied to the nominating committee and the slates for convention delegates and executive committe members were closed. Our hope is to start at the county level where we have made some progress. These rule changes will now take power from the state GOP and give it to the RNC and to the presidential candidates, the problem with this is that they can now load the primaries with winner take all and non Conservative states guranteeing a big earl lead in the nomination process for the RINO candidates that will cause money and enthusiasm to dry up for Conservative candidates.
This will also make it more difficult to work our way from the county to the state level because the state party will be even more controlled by the RNC. I contacted our two rules committe delegates and one responded he cwould do what he thought was the right thing to do. I believe he did not support the minority position, I know he supported the “compromise”.

Which is the opposite of the reason our founding fathers made this country of our the way they did...
What can WE do about it before it's too late?
