He wasn't told about the terrorist attack in Benghazi until the next morning because... well, doncha know ...it was night. Obama was sleeping. And Heaven help the person who would have had the job of waking him up. You don't disturb the Won with trivialities in the middle of the night. (But the real reason was probably because he was drugged up or drunk and they knew he wouldn't react with any sense anyway.)
But he can be wide awake around the clock for 2 days to call people for his own campaign. Priorities, you know.
I love the smell of desperation at 3am in the morning.
I expect we are going to see some very strategic moves from R&R the day after the final debate. He has run a very disciplined campaign, and I expect a strong final push. R&R need to close on a positive uplifting note. Forward looking.
