I'm watching CNN and waiting for the Obama VP text message. What
is the cable network doing to fill the time in the absence of any
new information? John King reported that the Obama campaign may
wait until tomorrow morning to send out the text, prompting Wolf
Blitzer to ask whether the campaign would risk alienating voters on
the west coast whose phones/blackberries would start ringing and
buzzing in the middle of the night western time. As far as I can
tell, he meant this as a serious question. What happened to the
saying "no news is no news"?
