According to ABC’s Jack Tapper, McCain will spend the next two weeks hitting SoetorObama’s slimey associations with Tony Rezko, William Ayers, Bernadine Dohrn, James Meeks, Emile Jones, and others.

We think that’s only half the story.

People in Chicago insist “that’s not enough, people have already heard about all this”, and that’s partly true. We in Chicago have been hearing about these characters for years, but the MSM has protected SoetorObama from the full brunt of any of these connections — when some of this came up during the primaies against Hillary Clinton, the Kool-Aid was more potent, and the public’s attention to all of this was nil. Also, Clinton could never drive any of this home, her hands tied by the party, and she personally wary of annihilating SoetorObama and risk alienating his followers (whom she would need to win). McCain has no such constraints.

But the timing on all of this is off. Just think about it.

We have 4 weeks until the election. Hitting hard on SoetorObama’s associations now, as Tapper suggests, gives SoetorObama time to recover before the election — which is a bad move on McCain’s part.

That means there has to be another punch coming after this, one that will take us through the last two weeks of the campaign, right up until election day.

First comes two weeks of pounding SoetorObama on every anti-American or corrupt connection he has, highlighting every criminal, terrorist, or dirty Chicago political figure he’s ever been in bed with (metaphorically, if they don’t want to go there literally).

Then, the closing punches will paint SoetorObama as anti-American himself — we believe this will involved SoetorObama’s remarks while campaigning for his cousin Odinga in Kenya in 2006, his anti-Israel remarks to Palestinians in Chicago in 1999, and his wife Michelle’s rantings and ravings against the Clinton Administration in 2004 (where she accused the former president of killing millions of black people in Africa, either by not stopping tribal bloodshed or by the Clinton Foundation handing out a bad AIDS vaccine (both of which are more crazy conspiracies straight out of Jeremiah Wright’s den of delusion)).

SoetorObama supporters here in Chicago talk about these “three punches” that are coming their way — and the counter to them, we’ve been told, is SoetorObama accusing McCain of beating his first wife Carol (the same tactic SoetorObama used against Blair Hull in 2004 — just accuse your opponent of wife-beating, whether it is true or not).

That’s what we think will happen: systematically tying SoetorObama to Anti-American associates, then making voters see him as Anti-American himself.

We also believe a third sword of Damocles hovers - in the form of Republican brilliance, something we’ve never thought of, in our two years of following SoetorObama. Something that has nothing to do with Wright, Michelle, Ayers, Rezko, or anyone we’re familiar with. A true October surprise, even to us, that - if it is planned - will hit about 14 days before the election. We saw in 2004 and 2000 that anything dropped the last week of the election has minimal effect on the outcome — it’s not enough time to take root. So, the Republicans would drop their last surprise two weeks out to own the news cycle in that final stretch.

So, Eeyores, keep all this in mind. The MSM will work hard for SoetorObama, as they’ve invested everythnig in him, including all of their credibility. They are doing everything possible to keep him aloft, as Team McCain does all it can to add lead to his sagging balloon. That’s the dynamic we’re in.

We believe that Hindenburg crashes on November 4th — and something tells us it will be SoetorObama’s own words (or Michelle’s), that brings that sucker down.
