So That’s What CNN’s Political Crew Is Doing On Their Laptops

In the arms race to squeeze more pundits with more laptops into a single stage, CNN has always held the lead. They’re for keeping an up-to-the-second finger on the blogosphere’s pulse, receiving sordid tips from 21st-century Deep Throats, yes? Tell that to CNN’s legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin–what you up to on that screen there, Jeff?

Yeah, just watchin’ a little pitch-by-pitch playoff baseball. Despite being from NYC, looks like Toobin had to keep watch of the Cubs action last night as they continued their epic choke, dropping to 0-2 against the Dodgers at home. But I can’t say I blame him–being part of CNN’s pundit brigade is probably doable while half in the bag on 45 minutes of sleep. Just ask James Carville. [Thanks Mark for the pic!
