OCT Surprise: If there are any reporters worth their salt
they ought to be sniffing around this story (Osama, that is) to see if there is any evidence of Shrubco "icing" OBL for maximal political timing/gain. If there was any evidence for this, the story would:
-Get instant Pulitzer and make the reporter this century's Woodward/Bernstein
-End Shrub presidency
-Possibly cause enough electoral landslide to deliver one or both houses of Congress too.
but if Osama just suddenly "appeared' right before the election, wouldn't that kind of timing be just too hard to swallow?
even for your average non-partisan American? maybe even for a few repubs? I know reagan did it with the hostages but even his own daughter saw through it and would it really work a second time without looking contrived?
