Too funny

NY Post - Kerry Picks Gephardt! MSNBC - N.Y. Post jumps the gun on Kerry V.P. choice
In a front-page gaffe reminiscent of the Chicago Tribune’s infamous 1948 "Dewey Beats Truman" headline, Tuesday’s Post trumpeted an "exclusive" report that Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry had picked Rep. Richard Gephardt as his running mate.
Applause to whomever got the Post to stumble so colossally.

Bwah ha hah!
