Republicans Bracing For 'October Surprise' As Gloria Allred 'Prepares For Romney Revelation' By DAILY MAIL REPORTER 20 October 2012

Revelation: Republicans are bracing for Gloria Allred, pictured, to make a potentially damaging revelation about Mitt Romney, just weeks before the election

Republicans are bracing themselves for Gloria Allred to make a potentially damaging revelation about Mitt Romney, just weeks before the election.

The pro-President Obama lawyer is rumoured to be preparing for her so-called 'October surprise' in which she will strike the Republican presidential hopeful's chances by unearthing some sort of secret or scandal.

Ms Allred has refused to comment on the rumours, which first surfaced in a tweet by the Drudge Report's Matt Drudge on Thursday. 'Here she comes. Hearing Gloria Allred out there again, about to make a move. After all, it's her time of the campaign. Team O at the ready!!' Mr Drudge wrote on Twitter.

According to RadarOnline.com, Ms Allred launched a last minute strike on GOP Meg Whitman's campaign for governor of California by representing a disgruntled former housekeeper. In the pivotal moments of the campaign, the lawyer wheeled out Nicky Diaz who alleged that she was fired by the Whitman family because she was an illegal immigrant.

Whitman went on to lose the election to Democrat Jerry Brown. Ms Allred refused to confirm or deny the rumours regarding Governor Romney.

I just don’t see anything that allred would throw at Romney, would stick. Anything she does will backfire.
If she brings up Sheldon, then Young could be brought up as well as the other man (whose name escapes me) who were killed in Wright’s church.

allred has nothing.

Wrong answer ~ Obama's baby daddy had about 5 wives, two of them white! George Romney only had one wife.

The grandfathers? Probably as many as they could handle and afford ~ traditionally you have to provide a house for each one of them.

The best suit would be a .308 appeal.

Big deal. Romney’s opponent is friends with a terrorist who helped with his campaign, sat in a church for 20 years with a pastor who regularly preached anti-American Marxism in the form of black liberation theology, and has been rumored to enjoyed the sexual companionship of other men....

Gloria Allred is a notorious liar, just like the Marxist.

Even the Marxist’s supporters know he’s a blatant liar.

Gloria better hurry with her ‘revelation’. I plan to vote Monday and many others are also early-voting.

Interesting...

Peggie Hayes—who doesn’t know Dushku—concurs with her assessment. The prospect of Romney becoming president, she says, “is a horrible idea. It would be terrible.” She says Romney’s recent positioning as a moderate “is a mask.”

“I’ve known him since I was 13,” she says. The Mormon leader who tried to impose church doctrine on her when she was experiencing some difficult challenges in her life hasn’t changed. “Not a bit. That’s exactly who he was,” she declared. “And that’s exactly who he is.”

Mitt’s moderate-ness is a ‘mask’... THAT’S A PLUS, YOU MORONS!

The issue is not important.

The trouble is that the sleazy media will give it legs and distract from the Governor's message.

This woman is looking for a camera. She got booted out of CNN and Fox ignores her. So she may get prominence on MSNBC and the Obama networks and local TV stations. Unfortunately, like the filthy crap she pulled on Whitman to give CA to Gov. Brown and the union thugs, she may try pull something out of the hat. The RNC needs to take no chances and lower the boom on her in an instant. Vaporize.

My guess: It is such an epic pile of BS that the Obamaites will drop it into the news cycle on the Thursday or Friday before the election hoping it sticks long enough before a rebuttal can be formed.

Remember old Stuffinopolis calling a show with some epic letter about Bush 41 that was actually just old news?

Ms Allred better be careful here, IMO. She had better be sure that any complaint against Romney be absolutely verifiable, she better name names, identify places, and have a bunch of reliable witnesses.

She can take down Senate candidates, Governor candidates and people running in primaries with some kind of shadowy, back street accusations, but attacking Romney, who is the Republican nominee for POTUS and has a better than even chance of winning, is something that she has never been involved in. Romney is not going to just knuckle under like Herman Cain.

I think that her past "successes" has gone to her head, and her assesment of her "power" is caused her judgement to fail.

Romney has been running for POTUS for a long time, and will not take kindly to some arguable claim by a former employee or former associate or some otherwise disgruntled individual.

Romney has access to a lot of money, both in his campaign and personally. He also has access to hundreds of competent investigators. Romney ain’t going to let some lunatic just throw out accusations and be expected to whine a little and then withdraw. He will “throw the kichen sink” at Allred, guaranteed……*caveat*…(unless, of course, they have clear pictures of Romney, [as "they" say] in bed with a dead girl, or two live boys)…

If Allred goes here, get out the popcorn and turn down the lights, its going to be fun to watch.

She has been sniffing around on the only confirmed story about his having illegal aliens working on his property as a result of hiring a shady contractor.

REMEMBER THIS PRIMARY CRISIS?
http://cnsnews.com/news/article/romney-i-m-running-office-pete-s-sake-i-can-t-have-illegals

CNSNews.com)- During last night’s Republican presidential debate in Las Vegas, Nev., former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney admitted that a lawn company he had used hired illegal immigrants and that when he found out he told the company it could not have illegal aliens working on his property because he was running for office.

Texas Gov. Rick Perry brought the issue up during the debate. “You stood here in front of the American people and did not tell the truth that you had illegals working on your property,” Perry said, “and the newspaper came to you and brought it to your attention, and you still, a year later, had those individuals working for you.

“The idea that you can sit here and talk about any of us having an immigration issue is beyond me,” said Perry. “I’ve got a strong policy, I’ve always been against amnesty. You, on the other hand, were for amnesty.”

This will end Allred career. This witch is insane and Romney, when President, should launch a full destruct. Sometimes we have to fight a little dirty to eliminate insanity.

Romney has no skeletons in his closet. I am not worried about this. I highly doubt they can find anything that would matter or change the election.

Someone on another thread speculated that the target could be Paul Ryan.

Gloria’s October Surprise is that she’s going to leave her coven dressed as a normal woman for Halloween.
