Time for an informal guessing game. At exactly what time (ET) will the text announcement come?
I'm going to start out the game with a guess of 6:40 ET this evening. The lead story on the evening news will likely include a piece on the VP guessing game that will get Obama a few minutes of press. Then, by sending out the announcement 10 minutes into the broadcast, they will interrupt whatever story they are in to report the breaking news and do a piece on the VP candidate.
I figure this will be the best way to maximize his coverage during the news cycle.
Post your exact time that the text message will hit in the messages below.
