SLOW BOATING

We all fear an October surprise.

But, little by little, the surprise possibilities are slipping away.

This cycle, apparently, there will be no reprise of the "Swiftboat" 527 activity that so upset the Kerry campaign.

There is no big money guy or organization to wade in with their own nasty campaign. Maybe that is why the McCains are being so nasty. They have to do it themselves.

Know When to Fold 'em

There has been a murmur from Al Queda but it has backfired on the GOP'ers in an odd way. The McCains called a fast and somewhat jumbled press conference to 'explain it' and ended up embarrassing themselves badly. A flop.

So the steady drip of the inevitable seems to be eroding the McCain campaign while the steady drop of Palin's favorables pulls it down.

But I am a Democrat and so I am worried and pessimistic and ready for the sky to fall anyway.
