Does Newsday know something we don't?
http://www.newsday.com/news/politics/ny-ustown1008,0,6652504.story?coll=ny-top-headlines

Headline: Final campaign face-off Friday night

Final? Hmm....

Yes, I realize that Newsday ranks somewhere below the National Enquirer in the hierarchy of news publications, but I found it funny that they would publish something this inaccurate.

And, they do mention the third debate next Wednesday, so I'm not sure what the headline really means.

Apparently, neither do they.

4. Who will promptly have a heart attack, at which time Bush will
nominate Guiliani as the VP candidate.

October Surprise! :P

Or Colin Powell.

Ok, maybe not Colin Powell.

John McCain?

3. Maybe? this also from article:
"Bush tries to lay on the rolled-up sleeves charm, with carefully screened audiences tossing questions sometimes no tougher than whether he shares his father's disdain for broccoli."

What do they know about the audiance selection?

5. Surprise, surprise, surprise (Best Gomer Pile voice)
The media will give Bush points for just showing up, but it will not be enough.

Let's talk about the other times Bush hasn't shown up...
