Did the Dems preempt Puke strategy and give us a September Surprize?
It sure seems that way and it sure seems coordinated. First the leak of the NIE, then WJC gets "set up", then we have a motion before the Supreme Court for paper ballots. Lots of MSM coverage of the whole thing. The only thing we need now is a total revolt in the Senate before the end of the week re: torture bill and we just might have our own trifecta?

Whatcha think?

1. I would like to think the Dems are that strategic but I think
that perhaps that all of these things fell in their laps...and this time they actually used them to their advantage..

2. Whatever the big surprise is, it has something to do with Pakistan.
Their dictator isn't distancing himself from Chimpy for the hell of it. Something's up.

3. Do you think they are planning to bomb Iran?

4. I've always thought that, but I don't think that will be the Oct surprise.

5. I don't think they have an October surprise.
I think they are bluffing, and sitting back enjoying all the speculation.

They have proven to be so vastly incompetent of late that I don't think they are capable of pulling anything off.

The only thing that may constitute a 'surprise' will be gas prices below $2, and that not that big.
