EXPECT A MCCAIN-PALIN "SURPRISE" THURSDAY.
Edited on Tue Oct-28-08 05:37 PM by redstate_democrat
Obama will have his 30 minute special Wednesday night. This will carry him into Thursday and possibly Friday's news cycle. The momentum going into the weekend and Monday would be unstoppable...unless McCain throws another Hail Mary.

He has no choice but to throw a Hail Mary and do it on Thursday.

What will it be? It's coming and we have to anticipate it.

26. Baby? Maybe. . .
I figure the only thing they haven't done is produce a white woman claiming to either have had an affair or a child with Obama. Pulling that so close wouldn't leave much time to disprove it. Of course, you'd have to be dumber than a sack of hammers to fall for it, and all those people are already on board. Still, I figure the guy's on a roll to prove himself the biggest arse of all time, so it's bound to be something epic.

9. That Khalidi tape.
If they get their hands on it they'll use it, even though McCain funded Khalidi's group in the Senate.

17. Joe's on tour


Supporters of Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., are seen in front of the Flag Lady's Flag Store, where Joe Wurzelbacher, or as Republican presidential candidate Sen. John McCain dubbed him during the last presidential debate, 'Joe The Pumber', kicks off the 'Joe the Plumber' bus tour with former White House Budget Director, Rob Portman, to campaign for Republican presidential candidate, Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., Tuesday, Oct. 28, 2008 in Columbus, Ohio.

12. Wow. What happens if we DON'T anticipate it? But then...
What happens if we DO?
And WHAT should we anticipate?
Jeez.
I'm just lost here.
I don't know WHAT to do.
I think I'll just run around in circles for a while and then get under the bed and chew on a towel.

15. They've already started by saying that the Obama special is "repulsive".
Edited on Tue Oct-28-08 05:48 PM by DemsUnited
That's the word from Elizabeth (Gag & Spew) Hasselbeck who says that with the economy the way it is, this kind of buy is awful blah blah blah.

http://thepage.time.com/2008/10/28/hasselbeck-obama-30-min-tv-block-repulsive/

Expect more of this kind of crap -- it's exactly what they did during Obama's international trip. You know, arrogant, presumptious, you remember that trash that was thrown.

16. Possibly a new "witness" to a transgression of some kind
Some remotely connected BS that average people won't bother to listen to. Inconsequential details.

The Al Sharpton fake attack has already failed. That was probably their big last hope. They can't have another one of those in the wings.

23. with the economy as bad as it is, Elizabeth...
I'd like to be the first to suggest a moratorium on hair dye. Esp the kind from expensive hair stylists...the kind that costs 500-1,000.00.

The double lift kind. You know what I'm talking about, brown eyed girl. Lay off the dye, do it for the nation. Wall Street Needs You.

31. Tomorrow's Obama special won't be big news...
...except to the political junkies who watch Cable TV. Obama won't make a major campaign announcement (it's too late to add something new to the discussion), so it'll get a 1-2 minute coverage on the network news on Thursday. This is simply an effort to assure undecided voters that he's a level headed candidate who won't destroy the country.

I thought IF they had any last ditch desperate thing to use against Obama or Biden, they would wait till after Obama's speech on Wednesday night.


I think it's safe to say we've won if nothing comes out by Friday (*crosses fingers*).
