Quite a news black-out, isn't it?

Looking at TPM and THE HILL and such... and nothing except rehash.

Stock futures up on an assumption... but no news. No juicy leaks from "sources familiar with the negotiations."

Nuthin'

AM I missing something, or is nobody saying anything about anything last night and this morning?

It's like riding a roller coaster of emotion because of the news of ANYTHING related to the impasse. It is tiring and nerve-wracking.

We won't know until it actually happens and we will never know the whole story. It will be interesting to read the books written that try to put this mess in some coherent form.
