I Am On Obama's Shortlist

For all you know, I mean. Which is to say: all of the speculation that's going on today is pointless and kind of embarrassing. When the NYT gets away with running the headline "Obama to name pick soon," we have reached the point at which the MSM is delivering news with a negative information value. You actually know less about the situation after reading the article than you did before.

Totally time for a blogger accuracy panel.

Meanwhile, I hear McCain is vetting Phelps.
