For the record, Drudge was wrong again.
He said it would be Bayh.

I didn't need more proof, but there it is. Drudge is a hack, and he's completely wrong almost every time. It's almost as if he just makes the shit up.

6. He never suggested that the VP would be Bayh
Edited on Sat Aug-23-08 03:37 PM by thewiseguy
He pointed out that some campaign literature was printed out which had Bayh's name on them. His story was true actually. The Obama camp had printed signs for at least 4 alternative VP candidates.

7. Oh - it WAS the Obama camp that was behind that?
Hadn't heard that. Thought somebody was just pulling a hoax. That's funny! Good for O!

8. Drudge doesn't report news using original content,
or I should say he rarely does.

The Drudge Report simply provides links to timely news articles. He doesn't "make shit up", as you so delicately said.

If you had bothered to read the article that he was linking to you would have seen that it was a story about campaign literature that used an Obama/Bayh name in an effort to create confusion. I thought it was pretty clever.
