Harpers: Dem "October Surprise" a lie

Republicans Want to Turn Over a New Page (Harpers.org): "The Republican leadership is lying when they claim that Democrats have engineered an “October Surprise”; there was never a plan to undermine the G.O.P. or to destroy Hastert personally, as the speaker has vaingloriously suggested. I know this with absolute certainty because Harper’s was offered the story almost five months ago and decided, after much debate, not to run it here on Washington Babylon."

Meanwhile, I remember reading a few months ago that Rove will have a GOP October surprise, and speculation was about an invasion of Iran. Will he still have something up his sleeve? North Korea?
