Louisiana GOP Caucus - Victory for Life and Ron Paul

(There is an update to the post below. Apparaently, the Louisiana GOP is trying to defeat Ron Paul. See the ABC Report here.) I hate it that everything in Americarequires lawyers to be involved. I guess it's better than the old way of solving problems, but only barely.)

--
The Results in Louisiana are looking good.

#1 "pro-life uncommitted" (which means anyone but Da Mayor)
#2 McCain
#3 Dr.Ron Paul

Now why is this such good newsfor the GOP and the USA if Paul isn't going to win? two reaons:

1. It confirms that at least in Louisiana, The GOP is the Pro-Life party.
2. Because of Ronald Reagan. Every Republican remebers the 1976 Campaign when Gerald Ford was nominated to run for President, but he asked his primary challeger, Ronald Reagan to speak to the Convention. It was that 1976 speech that made everyone in the room say, "uh oh! We nominated the wrong man." It was that speech in 1976 that made Ronald Reagan the nominee in 1980. The speech was delivered without a teleprompter, without notes, and Ronald Reagan didn't even know he was going to be giving it. I won't put the text of the speech here, but I urge you to read it. Now why is this important to the Conservative movement? Because if the number of paul delegates at the convention is great enough, he will get the podium and others like him, real Conservatives, will be speaking - we will have an opportunity to push the Neo-Cons and the RINOs back into the slime.

Some people think Paul isn't a real conservative, or think he isn't electable. If you think he isn't I'd like you to consider these...
