Additionally, I have seen the transformation of Barr over the years. He did not 'flip-flop.' He had a genuine conversion.
I never said he flip floped or didn't have a genuine conversion.

But for the if "you failed to attend your state / national convention, you have no room to bitch" that is total BS. The national convention has room for how many people? The largest meeting room at the Sheraton in Denver (where the NC is taking place) only holds 3,700 people. Link.

And the state ones hold even less, not to mention the cost it takes to go there and stay for the 4 days. It is not physically (let alone financially or logistically) possible for all or even a fraction of the members to go.
