Announcing the VP candidate by text messages first was being played up as something special Obama was giving his supporters.
A good thing about sleeplessness and insanity is that you're up at all hours when these things come out. So much for the nifty cell phone Obama-text that I was supposed to get...oh well...better luck next announcement.
Did anybody get their message? Was it the fault of the phone company? Or were they all just suckers again? Signed up on a list for a scoop they didn't get. Not to worry, WaterTiger. The next "announcements" will be donation request text messages. Those will come through, I'm sure.
Update:
Sen. Barack Obama's decision to choose Joe Biden as his running mate leaked to the media several hours before his aides planned to send a text message announcing the running mate, negating a promise that people who turned over their phone numbers would be the first to know who Obama had chosen.
It’s so hard to find loyal help these days. Somebody pretty high up the ladder must have been the leaker. Surely only the most trusted knew?
