Hillary Predicts October Surprise

New York Sen. Hillary Clinton is predicting that this year's presidential election will be very tight and the victor will win because of "something unforeseen."

"It will be very close," the former first lady tells the New York Post's Cindy Adams.

On how the contest will ultimately be decided, Clinton said, "It will be outside forces - something unforeseen that suddenly happens - that tilts the election one way or the other."

In 1992, Clinton's husband won the White House after Reagan Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger was indicted on Iran-Contra charges four days before the vote. Though the indictment was later overturned, the charges were enough to reverse President Bush 41's last-minute surge in the polls to within one point of Clinton.

In 2000 - again four days before the vote - a Democrat operative in Maine uncovered court records from Bush 43's then-24-year-old DUI stop. Bush's 5-point lead in Florida dwindled to a mere 537 votes, with the DUI news making Gore the popular vote winner nationwide.

Looks like Hillary is challenging Sylvia Browne for her spot on Montel and Larry King.

".....In 1992, Clinton's husband won the White House after Reagan Defense Secretary Caspar Weinberger was indicted on Iran-Contra charges four days before the vote......"

That is bs pure and totally.

clinton won because te democrats bought a traitor by the name of ross periot and he persuaded enough gullible individuals that would have normally voted for then President Bush to vote for him. clinton kept the freeloaders, vommunists, socialists, and fools.

The results of that disaster is what we are still trying to recover from this date.

bill clinton: Another reason why idiots should not be allowed to vote.

Options...

1. Kerry vanishes in "plane accident"

2. Kerry takes a ride with Uncle Teddy down near chappaquitak (sp)

3. She's praying that Al Quaida attacks around that time and the American public concedes just like the Spainish did.

Hillary is digging through the copies of the FBI files trying to find something on somebody. Her staff of Lilliputians are hard at work, and all of Washington knows it. She'll take her shot in October, that's true, but she has to test her intel before that. Look for little things to be planted long before October. My prediction is that it won't be at GW (she doesn't have the intel, if so she would have used some by now) it will be against Condi, Cheney, or another high ranking administration official. Of course, she may be bluffing, but I doubt it.

Don't get my hopes up again! With the headline I thought she might be leaving the country.

In a strange sense I bet she's right. See what Terrorists did in Spain just before the election? Its a good guess they will try to do the same here. A big attack will tell the American's Bush can't protect you--we are still able to hurt you big time after all you have done. It will undermine the whole war on Terror Thing. Kerry will seem like a man who can end the war by pulling the troops out of the Middle East (what Osama wanted if you recall) and coming home to re-fight Johnston's war on poverty. Don't knock the Hil--she may be on to something.

"The biggest October surprise for me would be Hillary's FINALLY adopting that child she hinted about years ago".

I wholly agree. A "she can say anything mythological in reference to a block of voters at anytime and nothings changed in 3 years either" BUMP!!!

[leadpenny]

Kerry just sent out for Depends.

I want to read the entire thread later but your comment says it all. Funny and Brilliant.

[Fraulein]

Per post #128: ROTFLMAO!

[Ann Archy]

Two words....FBI FILES.

DOES ANYONE ELSE REMEMBER THIS ARTICLE? Surely Hillary knew in March 2004 when she uttered this statement that Sandy Berger was under investigation!

[Pagey]

BUMP!!!

[MamaLucci]

Actually, HERE it is!

[Alkhin]

Considering her links to terrorists (released Palestinians, anyone? IRA leaders??? helllooooooo!!!!) I would think the FBI would be hauling her lard-ass in and questioning her after a statement like that. What did she know and when did she know it?

If that woman DOES attain the White House...there WILL be a rebellion.

BTTT!

I think whe was referring to the Wilson case.
