Things are always developing with Drudge reports arent they?

His guess is as good as anyone elses...Bush will move when he thinks its the right time and I doubt that he whispered it in Drudges ear.

That's because he's waiting on the Washington Post to upload new info.

Drudge just looks through the UK newspaper websites for tomorrow and hasn't had a chance to post the link yet which is 'developing' to him..

Since the word "blitz" was used, I'd reckon you are correct...
