Mikulski Retirement Rumor Idiocy
So apparently some rumor about Sen. Barbara Mikulski retiring “lit up” the blogosphere a few days ago. Well, for wont of real journalism, I will forego linking the original poster of this rumor and say this just proves that almost any political rumor can get legs if repeated enough …
Anyone who’s been around Annapolis (or Capitol Hill, for that matter) over the last few years has heard this rumor at least a dozen times from a dozen different sources. And each of those dozen times it has proven false. And, as a handful of national reporters so aptly showed yesterday, this latest incarnation of the rumor is just as false.
One of my other favorite rumors from the rumor mill — which I will just throw out there because it is demonstrably false — was the gem that somehow Gov. Martin O’Malley would get tapped by Obama to be his running mate back in 2008.
Arrrgggg.
