The Republican Party is about to unleash October surprises to persuade the two or three remaining undecided Americans to vote for GOP candidates. They will reveal negative rumors about Democrats and their media accomplices. A source on background released the following disquieting details:

In a sign that the economy is in worse shape than has been publicly stated, Air Force One has begun charging the president a fee for his carry-on luggage.

The Senate majority leader is so convinced he’ll lose, he’s already signed to headline in a new Las Vegas act, Siegfried and Reid.

If the Democrats lose the House, Speaker Nancy Pelosi has assured her aides she will keep a stiff upper face.

In a hint that she may challenge the president in 2012, Hillary Rodham Clinton has quietly brokered a peace treaty between North Vietnam and New Hampshire.

Even though Michelle Obama has planted jicama, plantains and papaya, the first lady denies she’s growing an undocumented worker sanctuary garden.

President Obama has replaced his teleprompter with Jon Stewart’s cue cards.

The ozone layer above our nation’s capital will be depleted for the next hundred years because of Sen. Carl Levin’s application of aerosol spritz to his comb-over.

President Obama is so unpopular among his own staff that he is reduced to playing one-on-none basketball.

The real reason former Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel resigned was so he could spend more time with his family of foul-mouthed rodents who live in his old ballet tights.

Florida Rep. Alan Grayson was evicted from an Orlando motel after bedbugs complained he was contaminating their mattress.

Senate candidate Richard Blumenthal already has admitted he lied about serving in Vietnam. He not only lied about serving in Vietnam, but there’s more. In 1958, as a Connecticut Boy Scout, he was court-martialed for selling square-knot secrets to a mob-affiliated troop in New Jersey.

The president’s indecisiveness was on display last month when he was spotted on the Truman balcony shouting, “I’m mad as hell and I may or may not take this anymore.”
