There’s been plenty of buzz about Sarah Palin’s press unavailability, but now it seems that even the press corps who are supposed to be traveling with her don’t know where they’re going.

Apparently the campaign still hasn’t made available Governor Palin’s schedule for the next few days, leaving some reporters wondering what’s going on.

“It’s always chaotic, but given the level of interest, I would think they would be a little more organized,” says Washington Post‘s Anne Kornblut, who was traveling with Obama but is on her way to hook up with the McCain and Palin caravan.

The pair was last seen in Cedarburg, Wisconsin, which means there might be a whole lot of cheese-addled, Cheesehead-hat wearing reporters on the loose.
