How many days (hours?) will it take for the latest dupe (#1001?) to claim (falsely) in an American newspaper that Olbermann has a “firm” “lock” on “second place”?

Is there anything in the universe more predictable than the nonsense written by the hundreds (thousands?) of geniuses writing about Olbermann in American newspapers?

So I guess Keith has attained his goal. “I’m utterly honored,” Olbermann said in a statement, “largely because I’d still like to be Molly Ivins when I grow up.”
