The Aunt Surprise

Add comment November 1st, 2008

Apparently the “October Surprise” isn’t to be an attack on Iran. It seems that the surprise has to do with an aunt of Obama who is in the U.S. illegally, (Obama claims not to be aware of that ); the inundation of the airwaves with hundreds of commercials featuring Jeremiah Wright, etc., and charges that Obama is not an American citizen.

Will it work? Stay tuned.
