Dr. Paul is so awesome:


Mr. Paul told reporters that fellow Texan Phil Gramm, a former senator and onetime top adviser to the McCain campaign, had called earlier this week asking him to endorse Mr. McCain because "he would do a little less harm" than Democratic rival Sen. Barack Obama.

Mr. Paul said he declined because "I didn't like the idea of 2 or 3 million people getting angry with me," referring to his supporters in the Republican primaries.
