So, is this like the body of a soldier that washed up on the shore, just before D-Day, and that had an envelope carrying secret invasion plans?

Sort of reminds me of the stolen debate practice tapes that made no difference. Gore still came off like the joker with that carnival clown make-up.

This is nothing...most everyone where could have put together the same briefing. I think that all the dim leadership knew all of this already. Notice no "hard" numbers are used...this is just some GOP speculation. No Polls...no strategy like "focus on keeping these states and take these other ones and we win the senate" stuff. It would be different if they laid out which seats they would move to protect or go after on what issues. Also don't think it was misinformation. There are better ways to leave that in the hands of the enemy (instead of leaving it laying on the ground...where anyone could have picked it up). That method has no gaurantee of success. I could have picked it up and the mission would have failed. If it was misinfo....think there would be a lot more strategy in it with more specifics...

Sounds like the movie "The Man who Never Was", only it was about invading Sicily, not the D-Day landing. Was this movie based on a real incident?
