What will the October surprise be?

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

I think for a surprise Bush should hold a summit of coalition leaders. With photographs of all the leaders standing in a line. When people see how long the line is physically, they will see we have a true coalition.

Longshot prediction:

Kerry's health.

The new one is that Bush is bi.

I read that one months ago. Sherman Skolnick claims Bush has a gay lover from his Yale days and that the man is sick with AIDS. Also, that he has showed up at the WH on occassion.

I just don't see Bush being gay.

I've had my money for months on an Israeli air attack on Iran, or more likely a series of attacks over a several day period, five days either way of October 23 being the October surprise. Followed by identification via airborne sensors from the radioactive debris plumes of Iranian enriched fissionables that those are one enrichment cycle away from being weapons-grade. The latter to become public several weeks after the attacks.

if we knew, that would defeat the surprise part of the deal, right?

[counterpunch]

Oh please let it be the Less Than Honorable Discharge!

I'm hoping for that. I'm pretty sure that will be one of them.
Then there is the whole "I committed atrocities" one.
And the film of Kerry burning Vietnamese villages.
And perhaps this film of Kerry at an anti-war/pro-North Vietnam rally with an American flag being burned and urinated on that we're starting to hear about.

It is definately going to be an interesting October.
I'm just hoping Kerry crashes and burns hard enough to take a bunch of Democrats with him.
Patty Murry and Barbara Boxer need to go with him.

I think some of the dems will try the Bush and abortion crap, Flynt tried in 2000 and the woman he tried to tie it to, said it was fake and she would sue if Flynt went forward. But look for some fake memos.

Bush won't go to Iraq, heck even on Thanksgiving the dems complained it was a stunt.

[JSteff]

Is there really one of these... videos?

[ApesForEvolution]

I heard sKerry is Try-sexual...

[InvisibleChurch]

won't be one ... it's enough for the libs to think there will be one

My Dad has a friend who was in the Navy at the same time as Kerry. He says that Kerry asked the Navy not to discharge him as they normally would have because it would not have been an honorable discharge. Hence the reason why he won't release all of his records. The honorable discharge finally came during the Clinton administration. I'd like to know why the RNC and Bush campaign are not bringing up Kerry's traitorous meetings with the Viet Cong in the 70s and the Sandanistas in the 80s. They are legitimate topics and raise serious questions about his loyalty or lack of it to this country. Taking the high road won't do in an election with so much at stake.

At Saddam's trail we will learn the Saddam's nuclear program was transfer to Libya. All the scientist were Iraqi es.

Swift vets will lower the boom on the less than Honorable discharge at use political connections to cover-up the records.

"~~Tah-Ree-Zah gets preg-e-nant...and it's not Kerrys?~~

So whose is it? Karl Rove's. That would be truly diabolical.

Osama Bin Laden's or Jesse Jackson's....?

Re#39 Bingo. The ANG thing really went sideways on them, hehehe. That and the SwiftVets really scr*wed up the left's plans. Had those two not happened, methinks we'd be really depressed about now. As it is, I'm worried about the vote fraud and 'rat lawyers. I want a W landslide.

In this regard, Rove did let slip last week on Hannity that he had some surprises for October. So did John O'Neill. Definitely going to be an interesting ride to voting time...

[JayNorth]

So whose is it? Karl Rove's. That would be truly diabolical. That's what I'd call 'Taking one for the Team'!

That is worthy of a Purple Heart.

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

So we can no longer call a spade a spade when playing cards? I dislike rudeness (and the original post was rude)but Politcial Correctness is a tool of liberalism. Its always disconcerting to see conservatives promoting it.

[muleboy]

I would not be surprised if Israel attacks Iran's nuclear facilities just about the time the kids return from Trick-or-Treating.

[Lunkhead_01]

An unknown surprise with unknown consequences: Jimmy "The Fool" Carter dies of a stroke (confirming he has for years been braindead) on October 27, 2004. President Bush suspends his campaign, but Gigolo John and Ambulance Chaser John use the event as a photo op.

"The new one is that Bush is bi."

That would be a stupid move on the Democrats' part -- Bush would immediately win 75% of the Democratic vote!
