Right now they're debating whether or not to have a registered Parliamentarian at all meetings.

A sane person would automatically vote yea and immediately move on to the next question. Of course, the RNC morons would debate this obvious answer and then chair it. It's going to be a long and frustrating convention.

I haven’t been watching so I have no idea of the schedule nor agenda of either Committee.
The 2016 Convention rules committee is made of of 112 members, one female and one male
from each state, the five Territories and Washington, DC.

As I have said in other Rules Cmte threads, today. Some of these folks want face time on TV.

The pink-panty never-Trumps will make some half-assed, faint hearted, childish attempts to “stop Trump” and when the Trumpers kick them in the crotch, and urinate down their throats, the never-Trumps will fade out like a fart in a hurricane!

Now we're talking!

That's what i was wondering. Did Trump/Manafort call up Drudge and say, "Look, i need a favor here..."

Drudge linked to the Roll Call story, he did not break it himself. But it was within 30 minutes that Rollcall, Indy, NY Times and CBS all had pretty much the same story, each saying they had their own sources.

If I had to guess, I'd say that the biggest leak happened when Pence informed the Indiana GOP that he won't be seeking reelection, and it just blossomed from there.

Do I think this was timed to the rules committee meeting? Nahh, happy coincidence. Not that Manafort wouldn't fire such a bullet at the GOP, more along the lines of a floor revolt solidifies Trump support even more than a happy harmonious convention. I'm sure Manafort would have been even more happy to get delegates unbound, have hysterics overnight, have Trump step out tomorrow, announce Pence, and by next week, have a first ballot vote of 2000 to 200 (or however that math works out.)

(the Pence leak) ... timed to the rules committee meeting? Nahh, happy coincidence.

Great analysis. I'm gonna change one thing, though. Instead of a "happy coincidence," I'm going with divine providence. Just like Trump's story about how he found Coach Knight's phone number in a huge stack of papers. :-)

Mike Lee better hope he wins his reelection this fall because what he did was just stupid.

Yep, now he's "Senator SDB Lee, UT." ;-)

Ash of AZ has submitted so many that he has even confused himself and he forgot which is which.
