Oh look what happens when you go to this here JohnMcCain.com website on the Internets: HENGHH HENGHH, Walnuts has endorsed Obama! Whoa, how does that work? [Democratic Underground]

Finally, the October Surprise! (Ashley Todd’s cut-nut negroid fantasies were in no way worthy of the title.) We have a war, of sorts, in Syria! Who knows why or anything. It’s the Kissinger Doctrine all over again: Just bomb shit, everywhere, whenever you feel like it. Who’s gonna stop you, HEHNGHH? MORE »

Remember how Barack Obama went on Ellen that one time, and then his wife went on, and then yesterday he went on again and proved through his dancing that he is indeed half white? Well, here is the new footage. Also: midway through we see a photograph of a young Obama in a pirate costume (for Halloween, a pagan holiday), an image which spontaneously impregnated thousands of American women with tiny pirate-babies.

Hey, maybe Jeremiah Wright wants Barack Obama to be president after all! Following EXPLOSIVE reports that he was going to publish a picture book in October featuring Barack Obama getting AIDS from the Muslim prophet Mohammad, Reverend Wright’s daughter now says that he has absolutely no plans to write a book any time soon. She also says her father would respond personally to email inquiries, but he is in “email hell,” which we are informed means “a place in Ghana where it’s difficult to send and receive email.” When will Barack Obama apologize for his former pastor’s daughter using the word “hell” so glibly?

We need some Wonkette Operatives to start working this: Democrats allegedly have a real October Surprise on the way. What is it? How badly can they screw it up?

Bunch of wonky crap and your clever comments, after the jump.

According to a Bloomberg report today, a horrific “October Surprise” will visit the United States before the midterms.

To be certain, the party’s confidence is occasionally tempered by the realities of recent elections. At a private gathering sponsored by Democratic House Leader Pelosi for some of the party’s biggest givers in California early this month, there was a palpable sense that Karl Rove and the White House will engineer some “October surprise.”

So, what will it be? Locusts? Zombies? Free hamburgers? Take our exciting new poll … after the jump.
