The Price of Friendship...

Ron Paul's cohort is fighting tooth and nail all over this country to get delegate's credentials for the republican national convention this summer.
Now, they are obligated to vote for Mitt Romney, but their mere presence on the floor opens up all sorts of potentially disruptive scenarios.
And to think a mere three months ago, Ron Paul was running all sorts of interference for Romney in the various GOP presidential debates.
They were best buds, then.
Now look at em', raiding GOP caucuses under the false flag of the Romney campaign, some friend eh?
Ron Paul is fanatical and weird, and you can't take the like at their word, if Romney was not such a hopelessly inept amateur at the game of politics he'd realize this.
Mind you, I don't believe all the diresome predictions about libertarians running amok at the RNC, history rarely favors the worst case scenario.
At the very least though, the presence of so many "Short Bus Republicans" and sundry Objectivist jihadists vastly complicates any attempt by Mitt Romney to shake that etch-a-sketch and track back to the center.
Moreover, it is just plain titillating to imagine Mitt Romney going Hat in Hand to Ron Paul to get the Best Deal He Can For The GOP.
