Can Fox News and the AP hold off on the drooling, at least until it might be more warranted?

I mean, what's with the AP headline?

Senate back to 50-50 with Johnson out

First of all, Johnson isn't out. Furthermore, we don't know what Gov. Rounds would do if forced to fill a vacancy, so we don't know if it would be 50-50. (The pressure to appoint Johnson's son as a "legacy" fill-in until the 2008 elections would be intense.)

But we can't let the facts stand in the way of barely restrained premature celebrations.
