The Log Cabin gets all Don Quixote at the RNC.

The Log Cabin Republicans have set up shop in Minneapolis-St. Paul in hopes of influencing their party on gay issues, especially same-sex marriage. The group's national communications director, Scott Tucker said, "It's important for the Republican Party to be inclusive on this issue, because we are at risk of being on the wrong side of history."
In a curious quest for planks… any planks… a plank…? a toothpick…?, the group has already endorsed the Repub's McCain-Palin ticket before knowing much about how the vice-presidential nominee-to-be stands on these issues.
Seems like they took their cue from McCain on that one.
