My question is this:
Why is Team Obama waiting until Friday or Saturday to make the announcement that they hope will dominate the next few news cycles? A weekend announcement is known as “throwing out the trash.” It is when you announce what you hope no one will notice—and over the summer, during the last few weeks of the vacation season—there are fewer people than usual paying attention.
This announcement should have come midday yesterday. The delay is puzzling.

Come aboard. We're expecting you.
Welcome home. Here we (henceforth to be understood and taken as the Royal We) believe that you can't make sense out of nonsense. With that in mind, you should never let the facts get in the way of a good story. And we won't. We also believe that if you voted for Bush then the last eight years are your fault, but if you voted for Hillary anytime after Super Tuesday then the next four just might be yours. We have a very liberal policy on pants in that they are entirely optional and not at all encouraged. Sometimes we blog slow and sometimes we blog quick. Join me, will you not?
A meandering journey through whatever happens to be on my mind at any given moment. Armchair political commentary, semi-informed sports observations, and the occasional play at humor. Basically, if you don't expect too much then you won't be let down. It's just that simple.
