The polls may suggest Republicans will see gains in this Novembers elections, but former Democratic strategist Bob Beckel thinks they shouldnt get too comfortable. The Five co-host mysteriously signaled Democrats have something up their sleeve.
Ill tell you: I would expect an October surprise, Beckel said on Thursday. I think I know what is Im not going to say it, but I think I know what it is and it is going to shake things up, and it has to do with national security.
Beckels secrecy comes as President Obama faces perhaps the most significant foreign-policy challenge of his presidency, the growing threat of the Islamic State.
As I recall George HW Bush, a former pilot, flew an SR-71 to Iran and cut a super secret deal to undermine the up to that point stellar foreign policy of James Earl Carter.
I can only pray for to God of Israel and His Son and Spirit to intervene mightily.
Yes to that, F15Eagle.
One way to look at any “Oct. surprise” on the Dems part is that anything Obama does is not ever going to be good for the USA or Israel so how could it help the Democrats?
Spread the rumor that voting machines have been contaminated with ebola virus fluids. Nobody will touch them.
That's no surprise.
The democrats are opening a new ballot manufacturing plant.
How does anything relating to National Security HELP the Dems? It’s an area that doesn’t favor them, or rather that they don’t favor.
I would assume it has something to do with a leak regarding republicans who have done something to jeopardize the national security.
An Ebola breakout and martial law, that’s what.
It will be a Gigavote factory in Nevada.
Maybe they found Ayman Zawahiri and plan to grab him right before the elections.
I think I know what is Im not going to say it, but I think I know what it is”
Last time “it” was marketed, “it” turned out to be a stupid scooter based on an inverted pendulum control circuit.
I don’t get to excited about “it” anymore.
John McCain meeting with ISIS.
Suspend elections because of the Ebola threat...?
Watch for a false-flag operation of some kind.
Fear not. The end times scenario has been initiated and God is in control. We are not going to change the trajectory. Look up for our redemption draweth nigh.
I’m not defending the merits or demerits of saving the Nigerian girls, only speculating on what might be created for a surprise in October. If it comes to pass, maybe then it won’t be as much of a surprise.
Beckel didn’t make much sense. He said he thought it was impossible for the Republicans to NOT take the senate, then said don’t get to comfortable. Later he mentioned the Oct surprise. I’m not sure Beckel knew what he was talking about. The others on “The Five” didn’t seem to care and didn’t even ask him about it.
Beckel is full of shite - he thinks he is more important than he is and doesn’t know squat... I hate how he mumbles crap as if he isn’t really saying the words - just mumbles like an old drunk then pretends he didn’t say anything
How does anything relating to National Security HELP the Dems? Its an area that doesnt favor them, or rather that they dont favor.
Exactly!
Obama and the Dems aren’t going to do anything that’s beneficial to the United States.
They got nothing worth a dang. Smiling Beckel playing fools and jerking chains.
