So WTF was the big announcement?
It could come at any time...
That didn’t come from the official Fred08 site that there was a “surprise” announcement. In fact, I checked some of the “big” conservative blogs that day and saw nothing about any surprise announcement. It seems it blossomed from the drive to raise $250K by 6PM tonight to buy airtime for an ad in Iowa. Someone along the line whispered “announcement”, and that was all it took. Well, it certainly got us buzzing here at FR. ;^)
Kinda like the game of “telephone”.
