Okay, maybe it's frustrating when they send you off to get a news story and nothing happens. Maybe you don't want your byline to be associated with "everyone kept to the script and we were shut out." Maybe you want to go the extra mile to find the drama that no one else found.

So, Laurie Kellman, what do you have on Sonia Sotomayor's meeting with Senate leaders in which she consciously made no public statements?

She even remained composed when Majority Leader Harry Reid referred to her as "the whole package" and thrice invoked the word "dog" to describe her — twice as an "underdog" who rose through the Ivy League and the judiciary to become "top dog."

Oooh, I don't know if I'm more mad that Senator Reid would be so publicly disrespectful to a member of the federal judiciary or that she would be so meek that she -- wait, what? Really? Really?
