    Republican officials on Thursday said the formal presidential nomination would come days earlier than at previous conventions in part because of concerns about supporters of Ron Paul. Officials are also discussing the potential impact of Tropical Storm Isaac on the convention’s timing.

    Republican presidential candidates have typically been nominated a day ahead of their convention speech. Romney is slated to speak next Thursday. The three broadcast television networks are not planning to air Monday night’s proceedings, beginning their coverage on Tuesday evening.

    Paul was one of a number of Republicans who challenged Romney during the primary.

    Ron Paul and his cult followers are very dangerous people. They are trying to take over the various State & local Republican party organizations. They will try to disrupt the convention and cause embarassment to our next president,Mitt Romney. Mir hobn nisht genug tzuris with that Congressman from Missouri and Hurricane Isaac.

    The chance that Romney could win makes me glad that I am leaving the country, IY”H, before the end of this year. What a horrible mess the US is in for.
