October Surprise!?
Where is it? I would have figured it would show up by now! Do you think the Rethugs were clever enough not too pull one or will we see one in this next week? Will it be a November surprise on the 1st? I remain loyal. I still say it will be some sort of dramatic military mission (like an embassy rescue) in Africa or the Carribean that will have nothing to do with Iraq or Afghanistan and will serve to only temporarily boost poll numbers. What does everybody else think?

1. "Peace is at Hand"
Henry Kissinger said that, a few days before the election in November 1972.

Then a month later the Nixon Administration began $8 billion worth of bombing of Cambodia.

It's likely to be something like that -- a dramatic peace initiative, something from the Iraqi government.

Or, maybe they'll pull Osama out of the refrigerator on Diego Garcia, thaw him out and declare him DEAD.

It's bound to be some kind of lying sh*t.

2. If Bush* is too far behind for the vote stealing...
...to make up the difference, there will be a "terrorist" attack on Washington DC. Martial law will be declared, the shadow government will take over (remember them?), the elections will be "postponed" until "order is restored."

Or until hell freezes over, whichever comes first.
