Ron Paul Has Fun With RNC Snub

Gage Skidmore

U.S. Rep. Ron Paul had a little fun with his exclusion from the Republican National Convention.

At a Tampa rally Sunday, Paul said he got an unexpected call.

"There's been a lot of talk about whether or not I would get to speak at the convention. And of course I had about written than off. But today I got a call from the RNC. And they said they changed their mind and they're going to give me whole hour and I can say whatever I want - tomorrow night."

Of course Monday's Republican National Convention session was canceled over concerns about Tropical Storm Isaac.
