October Surprise Scale

1-Complete Dud to 10-Devastating


This is about a 2 1/2, maybe a 3. Pretty pathetic considering they've been plotting for the past 4 years.

Agree with you! Not a big story. Iraq had weapons?

DUD!

Having now read the "dreaded article" (I'm shocked, SHOCKED that there were explosives in Iraq) if this is the long waited for Democratic October Surprise, no dramas. if terrorists or insurgents truly did what is alleged here, drove dozens of trucks away from weapons storage bunkers WHILE the Coalition military was in Iraq, that would not bode well for the local commanders.

But, taking the article in faith, from late 2002 to late 2003, the stockpile went missing. If I am Saddam Hussein or his military, would I move that stuff in advance of an invasion: you betcha.

The bottom line on this is two fold. Number one, thankfully, this President doesn't meddle in the day to day nit picking of military operations as some of his predecessors did, notable LBJ. Second, if this is the October Surprise, I'd be ecstatic. I was getting worried they found out about Elvis's secret location or that we've been covertly tracking Grey Goose Vodka, the official French Vodka of the Liberals.

Stay focused, one week to go, this was a news story, not the end all be all nothing more

I agree. Geez, 4 years ago all they had was a 30-year-old DUI. What are they REALLY planning?
