Following Monday's final presidential debate between Republican candidate Mitt Romney and President Barack Obama, what's left to influence voters between now and election day? An "October surprise" could be on the way from both sides of the race.
According to Politico, Donald Trump said that he'll reveal "very big" news about Pres. Obama but wouldn't elaborate further on what it would be.
"Something very, very big concerning the president of the United States," the "Celebrity Apprentice" show-runner told "Fox & Friends" on Monday. "It's going to be very big. I know one thing you will cover it in a very big fashion."
Trump told TMZ that an announcement would be made around noon on Wednesday and that it could possibly impact the election.
Though he previously considered running for president himself, the billionaire endorsed former Gov. Mitt Romney earlier this year and has been a longtime critic of Obama. The White House released the Democrat's birth certificate last year after The Donald and other "birthers" claimed Obama was not born in the United States.
Trump's mysterious announcement could get competition from another "October surprise" news event, however, courtesy of high-profile lawyer Gloria Allred.
"Here she comes," The Drudge Report's Matt Drudge wrote. "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!"
She's refused to confirm it, but Slate reports Allred is expected to drop a bombshell about Romney and abortion. Breitbart points out that Obama's recent "Romnesia" attack may have taken the word from Mormon feminists who criticized the Republican years ago as being unable to recall specific details of his advice on abortion to female congregants.

On the one hand, anticipating a surprise minimizes the impact.
On the other, Alred killed Meg Whitman’s chances (for CA Governor) in 2010 introducing us to Nicky Diaz in October 2010.
So it could still work.
And that was a lie but Wittman could not stop the spin, truth means nothing to Allred.
Let me guess - Gloria Allred’s got some half insane liberal slut ready to trash ____________________ (fill in the blank)
Gloria is a tip tease.
Ummm no....Want to know why that scumbag harridan Allred has not done anything yet, because she has nothing with any legs. What she is going to trot out some women with the face of a catchers mitt, complaining she was bullied into not having an abortion 30 years ago? Oooh the horror , an election game changer, maybe this women can come on TV and cry and that would be good for .0000001 percent of the vote. I think also Allred has money issues and her own skeletons and does not need that kind of whoop ass coming down on her. She may try some stunt, and MSNBC will cover it for a news cycle and the other MSM folks will hyperventilate, but when the polls dont move, they will drop it. Its over, lets work hard and finish this thing and stop waiting for calamities and conspiracies
Gloria is a tip tease.
Trump always seems to come up short, he’s big on hype but the substance doesn’t really live up to it. With the birth certificate controversy he failed to question the legitimacy of the forged document in a clear and coherent way, thus essentially taking the issue off the table. Fail.
Allred has a much stronger track record of pulling off dirty tricks that work.
Contemplate Allred having something that she pulls out that decisively changes the momentum in the race and costs Romney the election. To me that would be an amazing finish to the campaign. It would be horrible to see Obama reelected under any circumstance, but imagine his reelection being tainted with a media induced feeding frenzy by a floozy like Allred.
How do the big money people who’ve sunk hundreds of millions into the race respond to their investment being destroyed by this harpy? How do the millions of citizens view the legitimacy of Obama’s re-election if it is predicated on a dirty trick? How does the GOP House respond to Obama’s legislative initiatives in this case?
Seems like it is the very worst case for America. Obama wins an empty victory and lacks the legitimacy to govern.
Whatever Gloria has re: Romney/abortion, it’s going to be something aimed right at evangelical Christians, think they will be the first to ditch Romney, ala Mark Foley.

I object to your provocative terminology. Since the creative use of photoshop was demonstrated by Team Obama on the WH Web site, I was inspired to create my own car and boat titles, my own title to my home, my own Medical Diploma, my own Medical License, and to give my dog Fido the legitimacy he has always craved with his very own Birth Certificate, Social security #, and since he's a patriotic canine, his very own Selective Service Card (not to mention registering him to vote as a Democrat).
It is very harsh of you to criticize our POTUS for merely assembling his own documentation from stuff he picked up in Hawaii, which is none of your business anyway. Anyway, if he had a birth certificate, it would look a lot like sort of the one he posted for us, now wouldn't it? So what's your beef, big boy?
Since no court in the land will look at your (and Sheriff Joe's) evidence, let's stop calling this highly creative use of modern technology a "forgery." It's art.
Trump should keep his powder dry until Allred has dropped her load; wait until the weekend before the election maybe.
They both deserve each other, let’s hope they both cancel each other out like equal amounts of matter and anit-matter....
Do you think Trump might talk about the cocaine story that’s currently linked on Drudge?
>> Anyone else want to lock both of them up in an empty bank vault
Airtight bank vault. Stripped nekkid and handcuffed together by their left wrists. Give each of them a claw hammer. Coat the floor with used motor oil. Video camera in each of the upper corners.
Pay-per-view.
Proceeds go towards paying off the deficit.
” Anyone else want to lock both of them up in an empty bank vault until after the election? “
Nah
Allred is not a pleasant woman(bitch), who is well-known as a media whore who represents sleasy people. Trump has between 22000-25000 employees, all of whom are well paid.
Trump contributes to our economy, Allred bankrupts small businesses.
Screw that, in your shoes I would be eating two steamed lobsters (hear they go for 4$/lb currently) for lunch with Rush Limbaugh on the radio. Steamers on the side and boiled potato too
