Conventional wisdom now holds that both the Bush/Cheney and the Kerry/Edwards campaigns have planned surprises in order to shake the race in their favor this month. What could those surprises be? Here are some suggestions, are there any others?

Bush surprises for Kerry: 1) Bush meets with Allawi in Baghdad 2) Questions arise over Kerry's and Edwards's taxes

Kerry surprises for Bush: 1) Allegations that Bush got a girl pregnant and talked her into an abortion in the early 70's

[Old Sarge]

YOU ASKED FOR IT...

"Why wait until '08?"
"How about October? SURPRISE!!!"

[JoeV1]

The 'Got girl pregnant and did the abortion thing' is as old as the ANG nonsense.

And how about that Kerry girl that disappeared to Africa? Isn't it time to open the file?

2) Questions arise over Kerry's and Edwards's taxes

Rush made a big issue of that on his show today, really knocked it out of the park

[Melpomene]

The new one is that Bush is bi.

[Hildy]

Question for Freepers: Would the abortion thing being true make you not vote for Bush?

What about the whole John-Kerry-pissing-on-and-burning-the-flag video?!

Please give us a warning next time, I almost jumped out of my chair when I saw that face on my screen. It was horrible, I tell you, just horrible!!!!

[fooman]

Timing of the leak....

[Bull Man]

His discharge was “dishonorable.” BOOM

[eeggler1]

You S.O.B. !!!!

When I panned down the page and I saw that mug...I almost tossed my lunch. Ickk

I agree. We need to be more politically correct on this board. "Turd Burglar" is the PC term if my memory is correct.

[expat_panama]

Instead of just sitting around waiting for the dim lies to come out on Nov. 1, why don't we just take matters into our own hands. We need some lies of our own-- I suggest "Kerry is a child molestor who is going to explode the sun and cause the universe to collapse." Or am I being too timid for today's political arena?

The Hildebeast hinted of an demoncRAT October surprise in March 2004. Was See BS and Dan Blather debacle all they had in their knapsack? Pressure should be exerted to force Botox Ketchupman to release his military records. Wesley Clarke knew something about Ketchupman's records. Also, Twerpy te-RAY-za should be releasing her tax records too. These demoncRATS get away with everything even murder when it comes down to it.

I would never vote for the guy Bush was then, but he's not that guy anymore.

[counterpunch]

Well, the truth about Kerry's military discharge will come out, but that probably won't be from Bush/Cheney.

I suspect a good examination of Kerry's Senate record. But that's not really an "October Surprise", that's just what is supposed to happen during the course of an election.

Trditional incumbent October Surprise will be probably complete supression of the Iraqi insurgents, and also the Iraq Survey Group final report.

Kerry's October Surprise will be that Cheney has a gay daughter, and Bush is the priveledged son of a past president.
