Twenty Massachusetts At-large delegates/alternates (10 each) to the Republican National Convention will be elected on May 13 at the Republican State Committee meeting. The meeting begins at 12:00 noon. A location has not yet been announced.

This is an opportunity to promote candidates favoring small government and fiscal responsibilty as delegates to St.Paul in September.

Although only Republican State Committee (RSC) members (80 statewide) can vote in this election ordinary rank-and-file Republicans can offer themselves as candidates if they are nominated by their local RSC members.

Eighty-eight delegates are at stake. Ohio can tip the balance in either direction and denting McCain's campaign in that state will help Ron Paul continue on to the September convention.

Winning the convention for Ron Paul will take getting as many Paul delgates there as possible AND convincing those delegates who might support McCain to vote otherwise.

Many traditional Republicans who will not accept McCain as the nominee. This group is organizing to 'dump McCain':

Romney's withdrawal has left the 22 delegates he won in Massachusetts 'unpledged' to any candidate.

Well, here we have it. Iowa has come and gone along with New Hampshire and Michigan and all that great support and enthusiasm for Ron Paul was absurdly absent from the vote count. Blame it on fraud? Call for a recount? How about those ignorant voters who don't know what's good for them? Yes, we could try that one as well.

None of the above will help get Ron Paul elected. The massive fraud argument, that is unfortunately all the rage and misdirecting the energy of supporters at this critical time before the February primaries, really doesn't fly.
