    FTA:

    "Whether a Paul endorsement occurs later depends on a number of factors: not the least of which is how his supporters fare at the Republican national convention, also on Sept. 2. If McCain chooses one of Paul's "friends" as his running mate (possibly South Carolina governor Mark Sanford), he may still be able to forestall a Paul endorsement of one of his rivals.

    But there seems little danger of that happening. The McCain camp has not only made no effort to accommodate the Ron Paul Republicans to date, but has gone out of its way to belittle them and shut them out. Any doubts on that score should be laid to rest by the McCain campaign's appointment of Michael Goldfarb as Deputy Communications Director in June. Goldfarb was previously editor of the virulently Paul-bashing Weekly Standard blog, where he wrote on the subject in March."

    Le McMuffette Jr. is too dumb to realize he cannot win but only lose without the support of Paul's minions.
