The October Surprise was supposed to be Romney's "47%" talk. However, Obama's campaign was cratering in August and September. They had to roll it out to stanch the bleeding.

The Obama campaign has nothing left. The Obama Presidency has the stench of defeat and despair around them...the White House is beginning to resemble Hitler's bunker, with Valerie Jarrett (Martin Borman) issuing Death Threats against anyone who doesn't toe the line, and Adolf Obama in a drug-induced haze sending non-existent divisions (Obama supporters) to stem the tide of the Red Army.

The planned October Suprise was foiled by two ex-seals who came out of nowhere, stepped into a meat grinder and held off an army for 7 hours. Obama gave the terrorists all the help he could, pre-emptively withdrawing security and ordering stand-downs to prevent help from getting in the air. It was supposed to be a photo-op kidnapping/release but ended up a nightmare butchering. Fortunately, the 47% aren’t interested and the press is there to cover up if inquiries ever arise...I pray to Got that Tuesday is only the beginning of the taking back of our country..

Almost exclusively, the "October Surprise" is a tactic perpetuated by the dims. I believe there are two reasons why this was strangely skipped this time.

1. Romney is about as squeeky clean as it gets for a national pol. The small amount of dirt they probably had on him would have looked petty.

2. Sandy. Yeah the storm is a national disaster, but who would have predicted the love-orgy between the Pillsbury dough boy and the punk POTUS. Christy has done his best this week to sink Romney, probably for his own political future. What this bastard doesn't realize is the boomarang will come back with a fury 10X.

And by doing all this has made Congress unnecessay. Republican congresscritters are too inteeested in themselves to save our country. Since The Supreme Roberts will do anything for him, we have one leg of goveenment.

I believe here was indeed, a planned “October Surprise.” Unfortunately Mr.Stevens died and spoiled the kidnapping. The One then could not ride to the rescue with a lightning negotiation to release him.

wait until you see what he will do next term.

The period from Election day until Inauguration will be bad enough. Congress needs to do a rush impeachment.

For the first time ever, I am so caught up in dislike for a politician that I nearly feel contempt for any friend who admires and plans to vote for that politician.

You should feel contempt, at least in the sense that you should keep them at arm's length. That's my policy.

Anyone who supports him has to be delusional, stupid, evil or selfish. Or all of the above.

in spite of all the above obvious corruption, ineptness and treasonous behavior, this election is even considered close.

It is considered close only because the vote fraud is considered to be massive, more than in any previous national election.RNC used to figure that the Republicans needed a 1-2% plurality in order to break even in the count. It is probably 5% or more now. With the apparent ease of jiggering the computer voting machines it may be that there is no margin that can overcome the Democrat fraud advantage in those places that use them.

There is still time for a liberal “dirty trick” to be pulled on the last day or two.

At this point a “dirty trick” would probably be counter productive. It s too late even for Biden to get the sympathy-for-Camelot boost that LBJ got from the Kennedy assassination.

I don't care about all of this. I'm voting third party to send a message to the GOP, even if it means making it easier for Obama to win and give us another four years of this.

Actually there was a PLANNED October Surprise that went nowhere. Remember Gloria Allred’s stunt? It went bad even before it was attempted because we got a heads up from Drudge. Then when the court refused the gag order, the air was let out of that October Surprise balloon.
