He also had a flury of status updates, which included:

Howard has the latest: Obama campaigning in Ind. Sunday! It must be Bayh! Oh–his campaign says that’s wrong. NEVER MIND> (Gawd this is so embarrassing).

Howard is confident there will be no Obama running mate until Thursday. Or Friday. Or Saturday. Maybe.

Howard is back from lunch and still no Obama running mate. What’s taking him so long??

Howard is wishing that sometimes he could escape the political static in a cone of silence.

Howard is thinking: politics on Saturday night. Oh boy.

Howard is back from a political break after checking out Woody’s new film. Penelope Cruz for veep!
