'For if none of the four presidential candidates can win enough delegates to secure the nomination in the RNC’s first two ballots, Georgia’s delegates are then unbound from Gingrich and the other candidates, meaning they could then vote for Paul.'

That also means, if Romney doesn't get the victory on the first two rounds, Santorum or Newt could pick up the win. What the Paul acolytes are doing is perfectly legal in the GOP rules.

Well, I’m not gullible enough to think that Paulbot delegates (whether REQUIRED to vote for Santorum or Newt or Mitt on the 1st two rounds) would vote for Santorum or Newt on the 3rd and subsequent rounds. The Paulbots would go “all in” for Mittens (or whoever Ron Paul directed them to vote for).

And by the way, what Hitler did when he established his dictatorship following the Reichstag fire decree was “perfectly legal in the” German parliamentary rules. That DOES NOT MEAN the Germans shouldn’t have recognized the Nazi intentions and attempted to stop the Nazi seizure of power. By the same token, just because a power move is “perfectly legal in the GOP rules” doesn’t mean we shouldn’t RECOGNIZE WHAT IS BEING ATTEMPTED AND TRY TO STOP IT.
