As a RP supporter, I wondered why the media isn't mentioning him. Liberal media bias obviously.

Particular directions I believe are overly simplified, and do not reflect a more "fleshed out" view of reality. I would be a bit reserved in taking such views or information and attempting to invest in them. Researching and reading is one thing, but forming conclusions can be a problem, especially based on limited information. Particularly, information skewed with speculation.

What then are they concerned with? If they're not concerned with the actual issues facing America what do they concern themselves with? Beating Obama I'm sure is what they really care about, but if the replacement for Obama is just as bad what's the point? Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan are AIPAC shrills who support big government measures and the erosion of our Constitutional freedoms.

That is a good question. I can only speak to general observations by people supporting Romney/Ryan. I don't see many discussions about individual freedoms, sound monetary policy, non-intrusive foreign policy, govt transparency etc...

The topics I see discussed I find mostly trivial and ineffectual.

But corporate packaging of Big Govt is everywhere. Many seem to be just fine with it.

The Minister of Truth says Ron Paul hasn't changed and still has a chance to be nominated and wants to remind us Ron Paul has not changed and is not going to change and T.M.O.T. feels sorry for the fair weather Ron Paul supporters who have jumped on to the Gary Johnson ship.

He urges that all the delegates SHOW UP and BE COUNTED and not go quietly into the night. If we want our freedom back we CAN'T QUIT!!!!

"Tampa Bay On-line" site owned by the Tampa Bay Tribune in reporting about RNC plans says that

"Romney's greatest fear could be a movement to nominate Paul from the floor of the convention, which could happen if five state delegations line up behind him."

I wouldn't put anything past Romney's group. This whole campaign they have left quite the trail. Don't doubt that they aren't covering many different angles.

Most "conservative" commentators seem thrilled with Ryan because his budget spends a few billion less a year than Obama. The faux hysteria coming from the left is really too much. Paul Ryan isn't even proposing to cut spending he's proposing to slow the growth of spending! He doesn't want to cut current spending he just trims a bit off of projected increases in spending and then uses these "savings" to double down the MIC. His budget his hocus pocus. He doesn't even propose to balance the budget until 30 years into the future meaning further deficit spending for the next THREE decades. And this is what passes as "bold" in DC these days? This is a crying shame. This is a smokescreen being paraded as a "serious adult discussion of the issues." This country is truly beyond saving.

Mittens has lied, cheated, and stole his way to "presumptive" nominee status.

That is an understatement. I hope the delegates that were chosen show up and all do what they are supposed to do and DON'T PUT UP WITH ANY MORE CHEATING!
