This whole tape is crap. You mean to tell me there isn't one person at the L.A. Times that would be willing to sell or leak the tape? Journalism is about the biggest sell out profession there is. If the L.A. times wasn't willing to show it, somebody else would have. The only October surprise was that the Rays made it to the World Series.

This is interesting:

The McCain camp apparently believes the tape may contain evidence of far more nefarious comments or activities. Or at least it wants others to believe that. As long as the tape remains private, the McCain camp is free to imagine all sorts of things about its content, including the possibility that Bill Ayers may have been in attendance. In the final, dwindling days of the 2008 presidential campaign, perhaps one of the most important in our history, this is what they would rather talk about than the economy, our overstretched military or energy policy.

In fact, McCain claims that the Times’ refusal to release the tape is firm evidence of media bias against him and in favor of Obama. He knows better.

OK, so I've read up on the tape, it's for real, not like some of this other nonsense. However, it's not really an "October (sic) surprise", it's just more of the raising doubt about Obama's support of Israel. I guess McCain was buddy-buddy with this same guy , Khalidi, so it's really not a great deal.

Yeah, it turned out that McCain was responsible for a HUGE grant going to one of Khalidi's pet projects - making it potentially pretty awkward for him so the matter was pretty much dropped.

My sources tell me the tape is bad, real bad. You can believe it or not. I'm only telling you what has already been circulating out there.

He is in a room full of Israel hating activists. Even supporters of the PLO. He gets up, presumably after having had a few drinks. It's his body langauge that sells the deal. He is intense, slightly angered and rips apart Israel, showing sympathy and support for the PLO and other anti-Israeli interests. If this tape is true, and what I've heard reported about it are true, he looses this election.

Now that being said, I HAVE NOT SEEN THE TAPE and have no more evidense of its content then you do. I try to always be honest. The information I received about the tape came to me in emails, from various sources. the tape and report itself is true, what it has on it, is speculation.

Some whack job far left liberals will still say, "so what," as they are totally blind to foreign affairs, or simply do not care. I care and so should you. This is huge, if the content is as advertised.

That being said, what might that "ace" be?

I have heard, from a fairly reliable source, that a household name from the Democratic party will soon step forward and connect the dots clear as day for Americans to see. What will those dots possibly show?

Obama's terrorist connections
Obama's direct support, education, and backing, of radical lefists groups.
Obama's connection to racist and radical religious organizations.

As I've said before, why did you democrats shun Hillary. She might be left and she might be old news, but at least she is patriotic. I cannot believe this guy, Obama has gotten this far. I fully expected a democrat in the white house this time, but Obama? Are you for real?

"My Muslim faith."

Attended a white hating, racist, radical African American church for 20 years. Then claimed to denounce it? Tell me something you have attended weekly for 20 years that you totally disagreed with? Name one thing?

Has an Islamic name and Islamic family, this by Islamic law, makes Obama, himself a Muslim.

Are you people nuts?

Go ahead, put in a pinko, flaming left liberal, We might be due for this. We might need a change, but Obama? Really people, my fellow Americans, think about it? PLEASE!

In the meantime, sit back and watch, McCain's ace will be played soon enough.

Could it be he is indeed the ultimate sleeper cell? Think before you respond! Connect the dots.
Hasn't your mummy got cookies and milk waiting for you?
