2. Chuck Todd said that it could cause a backlash from the press corp unless it is a "surprising" pick
And someone else on Morning Joe (not sure...I don't think it was Mark Halperin), maybe it was the other guy there, said that it makes the McCain campaign seem really adolescent

4. Joe Scarborough: 3 hours versus 85 days being called liars.....
"3 hours of having the press follow false leads is not worth 85 days of being characterized as a lying group of campaign aides, is it?"

5. No, they'll get the call and be put back on their leash
They might be mad today, but they'll get their orders to drop it and turn Palin into a media darling.

Have any of us learned anything since 1994?
