October Surprise
In less than 72 hours
Submitted by Obidiah on Sat, 11/04/2006 - 9:11pm.I just looked up at my clock and realized there's less than 72 hours until the polls close. It is finally here.
It's been a pretty wacky campaign season; all you need are a few key words to conjure up what we've been through: Foley, Vernon Robinson, Black and Decker, Iraq, John Kerry (regrettably)...the list goes on.
The fat lady hasn't sung yet, however. 72 hours is all Karl Rove needs, or so he says. Baghdad is being locked down for possible strife that comes after they decided to hang Saddam tomorrow. I keep my fingers crossed I don't see Speaker Black's name on the front page of the N&O. And who knows what else remains. If you had told me that an evangelical leader would be busted this week for having a three year gay relationship, or maybe even just for buying meth, I would have told you you were dreaming.

By now, most of you will have heard about Rush Limbaugh's cruel attack on Michael J Fox's affliction in the political ad about stem cells. The GOP has a response ad which of course makes no sense.
Should we have expected more from the GOP? Nope. Especially when they have been caught hiding child predators.
(October) SURPRISE!!!!
