The insufferable Tom Brokow is on Joe Scarborough and he is trying, so hard, but he is not

happy with the numbers. I'm at the computer and not directly watching but can tell he is starting to voice his doubt about Romney's chances. I'm so enjoying this.

This Sunday evening on National Geographic the movie about getting Bin Laden will air. This will be

a nice finish off of the Obama campaign and cannot wait to see it. Nine o'clock I believe..

About the President being on the Morning Joe show on Monday. I'm speculating of course:

This is the beginning of the MSM or at the very least, Joe, Mika and crew starting to slant towards the re-election of the President. The numbers do not lie and they all know it. MJ pretty much sets the tone for MSNBC for most of the daily shows, sanity returns with Bashir. I'm thinking, in order to save face, Joe and crew will start to talk up President Obama and board the Obama train. I could be way off, but Joe does like being a "winner" and I'm thinking even he knows, as do his bosses, the numbers do not lie. The President will be re-elected and they want to be on the "winning team" of journalists. Whatcha all think?

My very non-political son called this morning to let me know he watched the debate last night. He

said that if an outer space alien were to pop in and watch Romney last night, they would know without a doubt, that he was lying. He loved President Obama's snarky responses to R, thought he was impatient with R's stupidity..I had to laugh, politics is the last thing on his mind..until last night that is.

IF...there is an "October Surprise"..(I'm now speculating and tightening my tin foil) I would

bet anything that Mitt has spent time in an asylum/rehab for a mental breakdown. I said it, I'm stuck with it, but sooooo many things are pointing in that direction. This, if true, could be his and his campaign's demise.

According to the NY Daily News, the WI shooter was found dead. I'll give the

link: www.nydailynews.com.

A suspect in the mass Wisconsin spa shooting has been found dead at the scene, a county dispatcher told the AP. Radcliffe Franklin Haughton, who is reportedly the estranged husband of a spa employee, was wanted in connection with the shooting, which left three dead and four injured, at Azana Salon & Spa in Brookfield, Wis.

Florida elections officials to oversee duplication of flawed Palm Beach County absentee ballots

Underscoring the deep concern surrounding Palm Beach County’s latest election snafu, Florida Secretary of State Ken Detzner is sending two observers here on Monday as workers begin an unprecedented process of duplicating an estimated 27,000 absentee ballots.

In a letter to Elections Supervisor Susan Bucher late Friday, Detzner said he is sending two deputies to “observe and examine the registration and election processes and the condition, custody and operation of voting systems and equipment.”

The deputies, he wrote, are empowered to “supervise the preparation of the voting equipment and procedures for the election.” Both will report their findings to him and file a written report with Palm Beach County Clerk of Courts Sharon Bock.

State law allows the secretary of state to take such action “as he sees fit.” But the law also allows candidates, party leaders and others to request that observers be sent in.
