What will be the October Surprise of 2004?

[TruthIsAll]

Poll question: What will be the October Surprise of 2004?

October, 2004:
Dem is beating Bush by an average 56-44 spread in the polls...
Time for an October Surprise..

[Jack_Dawson]

1. Osama in Handcuffs

You know they already caught him.

[HereSince1628]

2. Cheney convicted of corporate fraud in French Court!

hahahahahahah! And there is a GOOD chance of that!

[HereSince1628]

3. Karl Rove missing after not appearing in Plame lawsuit hearing

4. As Many of the Above As It Takes

I voted for Diebold, but that isn't even a surprise, it's a given.
The Georgia 2002 elections were the beta-test.
A 56-44 deficit is plausibly Dieboldable.
Former Senator Max Cleland was ahead by more than that, and he "lost".
The media would spin it as a late surge of angry homophobes and most people would believe it.

If Bush* drops into the 30's and still "wins", nobody will believe it,
so that would be the trigger for any or all the really nasty October
surprises on that list.

8. An "October Surprise" by definition happens before the election.

"If Bush* drops into the 30's and still "wins", nobody will believe it,
so that would be the trigger for any or all the really nasty October
surprises on that list."

A post election action is a good possibility, however.

If sceptisim breeds mass protest, they will use that as a pretext for martial law under Pariot Act 2 and start filling the detention camps with those deemed "crazy" because they won't go along with the scam.

10. Three things will happen

OBL will be found dead. Reagan's death announcement will be broadcast. Dirty tricksters will incite as much violence as they can at the anti-Bush demonstrations outside the GOP cconvention, a replay of the 1968 violence that led to 8 years of Tricky Dick (even though he did himself out of the last 2).

Oh, there will be Diebold fraud, but it will be in Congressional races. the above 3 things will ensure a Bush landslide without hacking those machines.

[Beaker]

13. about that 1968 convention violence-

it took place at the Democratic Convention, in Chicago...

[xxqqqzme]

17. I vote 4 the numbers trigger

if squatter's numbers R bad, something will happen cuz they can't cook numbers that bad! This gang of thugs R NOT going 2 give up the power they brazenly poached in '00 - not w/o a new theft plan in place.

[mlawson]

5. OBL captured, PLUS Ronnie's state funeral in DC, PLUS

some terra (or assassination) attempt foiled, PLUS the revelation of some horrendous scandal JUST DISCOVERED about our VP nominee, PLUS...

[LibDemAlways]

6. Expect the repukes to do whatever it takes.

If they don't have Osama, expect to hear of a massive "terra" attack that the chimp singlehandedly thwarted coupled with a nasty smear campaign re. the Dem nominee - an utterly bogus sex charge that he'll be forced to publically deny would be my best guess.

[RainDog]

7. other- invasion of Syria

terrorist attack blamed on terrorists in Syria.

just my guess...

[CalebHayes]

9. Diebiold will rig it if we don't stop them.

[Postman]

11. Bush in hand-cuffs. The other stuff I've come to expect, not a surprise.

eom

[Beaker]

12. the death of ronnie ray-gun...?

if they can keep him goin/on ice til then.

[Selwynn]

14. I think Osama is the most likely...

[Beam Me Up]

15. NONE OF THE ABOVE:

The elites let Bush lose (like father like son) and allow a democrat into the White House. THEN all hell breaks loose: The economy totally tanks, there's another major "terrorist" attack, social chaos. The Dems are blamed for EVERYTHING that went wrong due to *'s policies. Jeb Bush runs in 08 and wins with a land slide.

[fluffyslayer]

16. Coming October 2004 to a Country Near You...

You'll watch as Osama bin Laden is "suddenly" captured near Tikrit and those pesky WMD's are finally found! You'll laugh as Dick Cheney has another heart attack and you'll cry as Ronald Reagan dies a slow, painful death. You'll be shocked when every single one of the democratic Presidential candidates is shot by a now-demented (more so than before) Dick Cheney!

The suspense will be killing you as the election results come in! 89% for Bush (Now with 100% more Guiliani) and 11% for Gray Davis. Yes, Gray Davis. Coming soon to a country near you!

No, probably just Osama...

[Yupster]

18. Bush Cocaine arrest

That will be even better than last election's drunk driving.

[dand]

19. Repub trifecta.....

Diebold machines, brown shirt monitors, puppy dog press,

[gator_in_Ontario]

20. Bin Laden will emerge

errr....be captured by brave marines from his luxury compound...errrrr....spider hole, and be paraded around before the world media for 10 minutes and then return to his plush life filled with virgins and sunshine. imho

[dbt]

21. None of the above

I am afraid it will be that thing that cannot even be discussed in a public forum.

:scared:
dbt

[lpbk2713]

22. There'll be a blitz on renaming government properties after Raygun.

In order to inspire puker fanatacism. Remember you read it here.

[randr]

23. It will be the defamation of the left

During the Repugs convention in NYC agents will infiltrate the demonstrations and create a situation that will allow the * team to smear the entire opposition with some sort of "terrorist tag".
During the sixties this was standard procedure. Infiltrate a demonstration and start a violent scene. The next day the message of the demonstrators is completely buried in coverage of the "violence".

[Iverson]

24. early release of the election results

Trade secrets do leak out sometimes. It's just a shame that our votes may become private property.

[RebelOne]

25. I'll say all or some of the above. n/t
