OCTOBER SURPRISE
All the Demos have been crouched down mentally, waiting for Karl Rove's 'October Surprise'. The thing that would turn the tide back toward the goopers; just in time for the election.
I am sure that they didn't anticipate anything like the tide that has been running over the Foley situation.
It is not even about Foley anymore. He has done his ritual mea culpas and is safely hidden within the bowels of a (scientology?) alcohol treatment center.
What it is now is Hastert-gate!
Fat Dennis is suddenly thrust into the spotlight. We never really saw him before.
He mumbles, he backtracks, he flip flops, he denies and, worse, he minimized this problem publicly on CNN ('would have should have could have') and the flame was lit.
Could this fuckup be the one who is two heartbeats away from being our president?!
The moral examplars. The social value arbiters! The holier than thou team!
What a surprise.
Well, not really. Now more people know. I hope they are voters.
