Now if he never tells the truth, then perhaps he finally realizes that he does not have a snowballs chance in h*ll of winning. Every single Republican candidate still in the race, could beat him, even Ron Paul. Of course, if it is one of the RINO'S, there is always a chance the RINO will take off heading in the wrong direction at some point during the campaign (McCain).
At the very least, they probably won't officially endorse him like Juan "Lettuce" McShame did.
