5. There's no deal yet.
Edited on Wed Jul-13-11 01:43 PM by emulatorloo
Yes I understand you are being sarcastic, but like much at DU your sarcasm is fueled by specualation and innuendo about events in the future that haven't happened yet.

Specualtive Op-Eds are designed to Sensationalize, so take them with a grain of salt.

The job of those writers/pundits/bloggers is to create controversy. The main goal is to increase hits/ratings in order to CHARGE MORE $$$$$$ for ADVERTISEMENTS.
