really...I've never seen anything like this. Even our local news channel is going nuts (conservative south NC). It's all anyone is talking about. This is PERFECT!!!

2. Agreed, it is brilliant. The VP pick is often an afterthought.
It's being treated as though it's the biggest story of the decade.

5. Everyone around my work today was talking about it...
... even ones not into politics. "Did you get a text yet?" "When is he sending the email?" All.Day.Long.

It's brilliant. And it's FREAKING OUT the media.

8. Darlin' You down my Way?
I only use "Darlin" because moving to the south I hear it a lot. I'm in Charlotte. You?

I didn't watch the news tonight. A) Hubby was playing Guitar Hero and B) I trust my phone to text me the only thing that matters to me. :) So it's interesting to hear local news was going nuts.

9. I loved when Wolf Blitzer's story was how anxious McCain's camp is, awaiting Obama's annoucement.
Talk about OWNING the news cycle!!!
