October Surprises

Victor Davis Hanson "Neither event is likely to change things in November. Only a headline crisis could rally Americans around their now-unpopular commander in chief and his beleaguered supporters in Congress. What would that entail?
"Most probably something like a showdown with soon-to-be-nuclear and widely despised Iran.
"Obama ran on criticism of the Bush administration that it had not reached out and talked with Iran's theocratic leadership. Obama did that. He even muted criticism of the brutal Iranian crackdown on pro-democracy demonstrations. But Obama soon found that the Iranians considered his outreach appeasement, and so have only increased their breakneck efforts to get a bomb."
