His bill to Audit the Fed received a majority vote in the Senate on Tuesday , but fell short of the 60 needed to avoid a Harry Reid et al filibuster .
Although polling in the top five in Iowa , the Establishment managed to squeeze Paul out of last evening’s debate . Kasich and Christie , both ‘way down the list in polls WERE given the stage .
Shades of the 2012 GOP convention in Tampa , when the Ron Paul delegates’ bus got ‘lost’ in traffic until it was too late for their votes to be counted , and the convention ended with the Establishment seeing to it that grass roots initiatives would not see the light of day in policy direction .
The GOP seems intent on ignoring (and losing) grass roots support , to appease the Wall Street banking crowd . Then the pundits will be as amazed as they were in 2012 that grass roots conservatives just stay home in Nov. 2016 .
I am convinced that there are no greater fools than elitist fools .
