Bad news from Nevada
Saying internal party disputes are best left to political parties and not judges, Washoe District Judge Jerry Polaha rejected a lawsuit by a group of disaffected Republicans trying to get to the party's national convention.
The group of about 20 national delegates elected at an insurgent convention of Ron Paul supporters earlier this summer were attempting to halt the Nevada Republican Party from appointing a slate to the national convention during a private conference call scheduled for this afternoon.
But the party's lawyer, David O'Mara, successfully argued that courts do not have the jurisdiction to interfere with a political party's constitutional right to make its own rules and decide its own delegates.
Polaha agreed. He also argued that the breakaway Republicans don't know yet whether they will be included on the party's eventual slate and that the party has mechanisms to resolve disputes.
"They could sit down and say, 'Look what's happening to us,'" Polaha said of the party's scheduled meeting this afternoon. "'We thought the Democrats had problems.'"
Sparks dentist Wayne Terhune, who filed the lawsuit, said he hasn't decided yet whether to appeal.

Anybody know ...
When the next round is scheduled and if it will be an internal appeal with the GOP or the courts?
WAHOR!!

They are exploring every option available so as...
to put together a fully prepared and well planned strategy to address both of those approaches. They understand that what they are doing will be recorded for all history and that it will be used to re-examine and re-evaluate the unethical and potentially illegal events that have taken place here in Nevada. They are producing a priceless body of evidence and presenting it in a forum that guarantees the facts will be recorded and available to the public. Now that's important work... and I'm very proud of them.

Wait wait wait.
If that is how the judge ruled then political parties would be considered private entities and should pay their own way for conventions, primaries and such. Also a private entity can not be above others in preference in the law "ballot access laws".

Jdayh is correct...
The first step was to request an injunction in an attempt to prevent them from proceeding, which we all knew we probably wouldn't win. The good news is that Judge stated that after reviewing more than 5 hours of video from the April convention that contrary to what was being reported in the media, the convention proceeded in an orderly fashion until the sudden and unexpected recess. This now is a matter of public record and folks here in Northern Nevada are reacting to the fact that the party has lied to them once again about what really happened and they're losing even more credibility. Remember McCain came in third in the Nevada caucuses and there are already many voters upset that he is being pushed as the candidate so each and every opportunity we have to expose their corruption, we must take advantage of it.
The second step would be to contest their "appointment by committee" of OUR State Delegates and I'm sure at some point litigation in that area will proceed, as well as their primary focus of educating/influencing the Contest Committee at the national convention. The Terhunes and Webers and all those involved in the decision-making process here in Nevada are approaching these issues with integrity and genuine resolve to succeed in efforts to create a fair and open party.
Geeksneek...
We tend, which is only natural, to look at things from the point of view of Ron Paul's candidacy, but what about how NV Romney supporters must feel after giving such tremendous support to their candidate? He had suspended by then, but the NV GOP's heavy hand in the process here essentially quieted their voices, too. It was even mentioned elsewhere that maybe a September Surprise could be Romney...thinking out of the box a bit, but anyone seeing something unexpected, especially considering how unpopular McCain is? Would it be unlikely to expect the NV GOP has ulterior motives and might be lying to us again...something else is afoot?
IT'S DOABLE
Alpacas - IT'S DOABLE
Except for McCainites, EVERY NV Republican feels like an outcast
As a Precinct Chairperson with over 60 voters participating in our caucus where we elected 9 Delegates and 9 Alternates, I am approached regularly by disgusted participants who were never contacted about the county conventions and were not allowed to participate because the party couldn't produce their paperwork. Not one of them was a McCain supporter... I saw the only McCain supporters from our precinct where else... at the county convention... funny how they never have trouble getting their paperwork from the party.
There is an overwhelming majority of people here in Northern Nevada that are ready to use their votes to send a message... they just don't have any real candidates to get behind besides our local Constitution-based Candidates... so we have to try and give them a cause... preserving liberty in Nevada, etc. But I truly believe the people WILL rise up if given the opportunity.
Keep McCain off the ballot in Nevada
While the "good" judge might be correct in his ruling, there should be nothing to stop you from enjoining the state of Nevada from putting McCain on the ballot because the Nevada Republican Party defrauded its members. The GOP wants to act like a "private organization," then use same rules people use against corporations who cheat their customers and stockholders.
I like it...
...it would send a loud and clear message that the party can no longer manipulate the desires and votes of individual delegates.
There's a thought....Bob-45
My thought is to starve the Republican Party. No donations to anyone other than a RP Republicans. No money to the state or national organizations...the McCain campaign is already suffering from lack of interest...er, funding. I get appeals for $$ frequently. Are they kidding? Me, master of the budget and scared of this economy...donating to that group after what they have done across the country. I think they that the corrupt machine is about money. You "get" to be a delegate if you vote the right way and pay them money. So, o.k., lots of us didn't "get".....so cut the purse-strings as stringently as we can. Donate time, money and effort to the Campaign for Liberty (inflate those coffers for future benefit to liberty) and to RP efforts and supporters...no one else. If there is a reasonable way to beat them in court...that, imo, is worth spending $$ on as well.

I think we already figured that out.
I just heard that the McCain camp had 93 Million in cash -on hand, So I don't think we can starve them.
I think
Have all the hookers in Las Vegas compare who visits them with the delegate slate. Should be able to get some leverage there. LOL
Good Plan! And please contact one
to give Bush a blowjob too!
Then we will have an impeachment.....no problem!

Get a better attorney
and appeal. This is NOT right.
The question was DID THEY BREAK THE RULES THEY MADE.
Not if they had the right to make their own rules.
Once Again Nevada Law Says...
That the delegates HAVE TO BE CHOSEN at the convention. The law even stipulates how many days prior to the national convention this must be done.
THE JUDGE IGNORED THE LAW.
actually that wasnt the way they pusued this....
The attorneys and the judge were only presenting who had jurisdiction the courts, or the Republican party....The lawyer for the State GOP argued that the party had a way to deal with this and that it should be left out of the courts ...the judge agreed. ...
however, now that they have broken the law...by appointing delegates...It may be that they can appeal it on different grounds....I got an email from Wayne, and he said they are looking into an appeal...
Good to have you back Jdayh!! I missed not having you around
to update us on what's going on!! I'm happy to hear there will be an appeal!! :-)

I'll second that daughter4liberty
Hey Jdayh,
I understand they were just "looking into" a possible appeal before the Supreme Court. Maybe if we all went to www.nevada4ronpaul.com and chipped in for legal expenses, it might help? I know there has been trash talk against the Terhunes, Mike Weber and others, so this has not been an easy road for them. The Terhunes are such genuine, unassuming almost people and one of our top Patriot families....it must be hard for them. Their consolation is, of course, to realize that they are right and have done all of us a great service. Here! Here!

Just posted the same thing above...
Thank you Paulette for helping people to understand just how much strength and endurance it requires to take on a foe like this. Thank God for these families and their commitment to changing Nevada... to saving our state from the old school carpetbaggers of yesteryear so we can make way for a new generation Nevada Patriots.
It's good that they will appeal.

Enough of this talk. We need
Enough of this talk. We need to resort to what they did in the old days. Just grab the SOB Executive Committee leaders, cover them with tar, stick a bunch of feathers on them, tie them to a beam, and then run them out to the city limits. Then warn them that if they come back to town and don't clean up their act, that next time you will hang their beam over a fire and roast them like the pigs they are.

What you wrote is all they should have needed to tell the judge in order to get the case heard. The courts have jurisdiction due to this fact. They must appeal.
