EXCLUSIVE: Ron Paul explains why the MN GOP suddenly needs his help: "They Want My Money."
The MN GOP blocked Ron Paul from speaking at their 2008 convention in Rochester, MN. But on Sept. 25, 2009 the MN GOP sponsored an appearance by Dr. Paul at Northrup Auditorium in what was billed as a joint town hall with Congresswoman Michele Bachmann.
What's behind the MN GOP's sudden change of heart? According to Ron Paul, "They want my money. They want to get a little bit of influence from our supporters, too."
I think this says a lot about Ron Paul, who's been a consistent voice for what he believes in, so much so that he was willing to forget the past troubles with the MN GOP.
I also thinks this speaks volumes about the MN GOP. Their leadership realizes that they have alienated roughly 15% of their party. Now they realize that Michele Bachmann is actually in trouble and the only way to save her is to turn to the person they publicly shunned and beg for his money and help.
The MN GOP is exploiting Ron Paul because they are terrified without his support they will lose and lose big.
On a side note, I'd like to thank Congressman Paul for taking moment to speak with me. (DustyTrice)
