My understanding is that they intended to do the text message in the morning but they got scooped by the Secret Service (when ABC learned they'd assigned a detail to Biden) and so sent the text in the middle of the night before they officially confirmed it.

But who knows.


I did note a startling unexpected pattern: nearly universally conservative news "analysts" thought Biden a horrible choice, almost single-handedly scuttling Obama's campaign, and a confirmation of every bad thing they've ever said about either man; nearly universally liberal news "analysts" thought Biden a pretty smart choice, a confirmation of every good thing they've ever said about either man and a solid counter to likely McCain attacks.

I'm sure the party line split is purely coincidental and doesn't at all reflect on their actual ability to provide analysis and their personal insight.
