Valin Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Roll Call: Janie Lorber June 13, 2012 James Bopp Jr., a prominent conservative lawyer and high-ranking Republican national committeeman, is helping tea partyers influence the official GOP 2012 platform. Bopp, a former vice chairman of the RNC, is among those tasked with writing the platform and is using his expertise to advise FreedomWorks, a well-financed conservative advocacy organization that has taken on the tea party mantle. (Snip) Bopp lost his RNC seat Friday, the result of apparent backlash for working to oust six-term GOP Sen. Dick Lugar in Indiana’s primary last month. Still, Bopp’s term doesn’t end until the day after the party’s convention, on Sept. 1, giving him one more chance to sway the GOP line from within.

Evad Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 "We're gonna need a bigger boat" It's going to take a lot more tea party folks to sway this RNC-e bunch but, it's a good start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is happening is the Tea Party is becoming more than just a bunch of people going to rallies. And this scares parts of the party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
