(Honolulu, HI) - A sponsor of Jim Bopp's purity test resolution tells FrumForum that the purity test resolution could be discarded as early as this evening.

The members of the RNC's resolution committee are currently deliberating the more moderate resolution that Bopp had proposed, the accountability resolution. Soloman Yue, the National Committeeman from Oregon and a sponsor of the 'purity test' resolution, tells FrumForum:

Right now the conversation... is that if the accountability resolution goes through the resolution committee with all the [substance] intact and Jim can support it, then in return he will probably drop the Reagan [purity test] resolution.

...I think that if the accountability resolution goes through the committee successfully, by the end of the day something will be worked out with the Reagan resolution.
