The language used by Rosie Gray indicates an inability to grasp the facts. The statement “the Paul campaign claimed that supporters were assaulted at the Louisiana convention” would be similar to a statement by the Paul campaign that the Earth orbits the sun. How is an event so well documented by multiple from-the-scene YouTube postings a “claim” by the Paul campaign?
And what is the significance of the “Paulites staged a coup in Nevada, ousting two Romney supporters from the RNC” observation?
I don’t believe the author would describe Romney’s goal as staging a coup against the incumbent to oust him from the presidency.
As far as McGrain’s desire for extra security, that indicates he’ll try to violate the rights of his political opponents in the manner carried out in Louisiana, where off-duty police hired as security took into custody Henry Herford, a Paul supporter who was elected chairman by a majority of those present. This followed taking into custody Alex Helwig, a Paul supporter who was the rules committee chairman. In the process Herford suffered a dislocated prosthetic hip and Helwig had fingers broken.
