Ron Paul backers need to face reality and give up the fight
• http://newsok.com, The Oklahoman Editorial Paul's backers continue to seek the replacement of the Oklahoma delegation to the Republican National Convention with a pro-Paul group. They insist procedural rules were broken at the state convention, contending a standing vote of delegates was improper and a paper-ballot vote required.
To most, that's a difference without much distinction. That's likely why the Republican National Committee rejected the request to change delegates.
Oklahoma isn't the only place Ron Paul supporters are fighting trench warfare over delegate spots to participate in a convention that will not — we repeat, not — nominate Ron Paul as president.
The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports a similar fight in Louisiana. As in Oklahoma, Paul supporters claim rules were violated. And, as in Oklahoma, the Republican National Committee upheld the original slate of non-Paul delegates.
A similar squabble is occurring in Massachusetts, where 16 Ron Paul supporters were ruled ineligible to participate in the national convention.

How can they face reality and give up the fight ... they are from the "lunatic fringe"! Next time give this advice to normal people that think straight, so that you don't waste your time.
Be sure to read the comments after the article! Such as this one:
I never thought I would agree with a Carpetbagger. But great point.
Frankly, I am surprised to see communism alive and well in Oklahoma.
And disappointed that editors can willfully express falsehoods in the
support of communism and their capitalist sponsors approve of it. Ron
Paul won the delegate process in those states outright, and was winning
the game in the third quarter so to speak. The game commissioners
decided to take points off the board in fourth quarter because Paul's
opponent, Romney, didn't score any in second and third quarters as Dr.
Paul did. The RNC fix the election process in Romney's favor. This is
as criminal as Holder's "Fast and Furious" gun running, if not even more
so, despite the number of border murders. This is the murder of a
Republic, our country, where mob rule is not tolerated, but the mob is
winning, And that mob is full of communist infiltrators found not just
in the media, but yet I dare say in the RNC itself.
God Save America
God Save the Republic
Someone Save Oklahoma
Wow, a MSM OpEd that isn't an opinion; it is a fact sheet. Instead the headline is the opinion. Oakeys must be proud.
