The REAL October Surprise
They HAVE NO OCTOBER SURPRISE!

They've been making the Democrats terrified of possible "October Surprise" scenarios that the Democrats have been overly cautious.

SURPRISE!

2. None in 2002
They relied on Dem caution, Bush "barnstorming" and fraud. This time nothing they have done is reliable, much less a risky adventure. The debate meltdown, the Spanish election are heavily in the balance against a growing despair.

But yes, definitely, they are swiftly building up the straw man Al Zarqo, who has quickly joined Al Qaida and will likely be its head when his own is taken. Actually any head will do to represent this convenient bogeyman even the Iraqis aren't sure even exists.

3. The ol Shock & yawn play?
Meanwhile in the LA Times, article about the buried CIA report naming names.

CIA report which alledgedly names names and places blame

<snip> "What all the other reports on 9/11 did not do is point the finger at individuals, and give the how and what of their responsibility. This report does that," said the intelligence official. "The report found very senior-level officials responsible."

heh heh heh.. Perhaps the spooks will do an end run around their brown nosed boss and pull their own surprise? Am guessing there are plenty of them pissed about the outing of a NOC agent for fun and giggles by the malAdministration.
