Houston or bust!


Welcome, delegates, alternates, guests, pages, sergeant-at-arms, journalists, political junkies, armchair analysts, and anyone interested to a blog about what has in previous years been the biggest gathering of Republicans in the U.S!

Feel free to leave your thoughts, suggestions, questions and complaints here. The creators of this blog -- delegates from several counties in North Texas -- hope this blog can serve as a valuable tool in the often-complex/usually interesting/always worthwhile convention process. With the advent of laptops and wifi technology, we can provide up-to-the-minute commentary on the issues before the convention that the press may not have the time (or the interest) to report.

We felt an independent, grassroots voice could help in many other ways, too, such as keeping delegates informed on upcoming votes and listing last-minute convention activities. So let's see how this goes.

Note: This blog is in no way meant to favor one particular candidate, support a list of platform issues, nor is it meant to circumvent the leadership of the Republican Party of Texas (who are certain to have their hands full during the convention). It's simply a forum for observers at the convention to comment. If you'd like to help report, please respond to this blog or to the moderator.

The opinions of the blog posters are solely those of the posters, and not that of the Republican Party of Texas or its affiliates.

God bless Texas.
