RNC, Romney campaign will erect new organization to bypass state GOP - Politics: Ralston's Flash - Las Vegas Sun
Appears the RNC is less interested in the will of the People than they are getting their hand-picked hedge fund manager the nomination. When the results don't go their way they just make statements about the State Party like “They are still bogged down in the minutiae of whether Romney will be the presumptive nominee,” and then create a "shadow party" that gives them the results they want.
I suppose no one will be shocked that the wealthiest backers behind the Republicans care more about "their guy" than they do the will of the People, but wouldn't you expect them to show a little more finesse?
I wonder how rank-and-file Republicans will respond to this coup.
By the way, if you're wondering who/what a Reince Priebus is, just remove all the vowels: RNC PR BS.
“The goal is for us to be running get out the vote, running phone programs, voter ID, voter contact, everything through the Team Nevada headquarters,” the strategist told me. That is, everything the party is supposed to do, except the GOP here can’t raise money and has the inmates running the asylum. He continued: “The RNC has said it is willing to do everything possible as the state party appears not to be willing to work with us, so we will do it without them.”
The plan would be to transfer money directly to Team Nevada and/or funnel some through the Washoe Republican Party, run by the respected Dave Buell, who is well-liked by the RNC and Romney folks. To distill, the GOP insider said, “Essentially we’re setting up a shadow state party.”
