I think that's the only way they can keep him below 60%. Although I think Ben Stein is a major asshole, he does know those republican convention rules like the back of his hand and he was great at explaining the convention fight that the establishment GOP is aiming for now. He didn't mention the 60% that I heard but I was playing with and feeding the kitties through some of it.
