There's An App For That, And It Sucks

It's a little late to download Mitt Romney's VP App, which promised to let users be the first to know who he picked to be his running mate. Turns out it's Paul Ryan! The app faithfully delivered the news at 7:07am Saturday which is pretty early, except in the context of all the major news outlets who got the leaked news 7 hours earlier and tweeted it. And probably in the context of Romney's tweet about the same news, which beat the app by a few minutes.

Oh and Facebook.

Don't worry though, the app is going to upgraded and rereleased to retroactively inform you first. It will beat the leaks by two days.

Thank goodness the Obama Campaign didn't have similar issues!
