Republicans are heading to Fort Worth to attend their party's state convention -- a time dedicated to energizing the party faithful, setting goals and unifying behind presumptive presidential nominee Mitt Romney.
But they are likely to find themselves embroiled in the never-say-die movement by followers of U.S. Rep. Ron Paul...
"We are tired of getting the same stuff over and over again," said Kory Watkins, 29, of Mansfield, who supports Paul and is a delegate for the first time.
"Every day, more and more people are waking up ... and becoming more in tune to what's going on. There's a new world order and big-government establishment is taking over. We want to go back to the country our forefathers built for us through the Constitution."
Justin Machacek, 32, of Fort Worth, a first-time delegate who is on the national advisory board of the Evangelicals for Ron Paul Coalition, said "We want to get back to the true conservative platform".
"The revolution is working," Paul said last month, as he stood in front of the Texas Capitol for a rally.
"We have infiltrated the Republican Party, and we will convert the Republican Party into defenders of liberty."
