A mysterious new microsite promising an "October Surprise" for the presidential race popped up online this week, and is promising to release damning documents related to one of the two candidates.
So far, we don't know much about the site, octsurprise.com, which went live Monday with a linked Twitter feed @OctSurprise. The site warns that "one of your presidential candidates isn't being honest with you," and subsequent tweets say that the site will unveil six pages of "irrefutable" documents at 5:30 p.m. on Monday. Blurred images of the documents, which all allegedly relate to the same topic, have also been posted online.

Looks like a tax return, possibly?

He’s dead, Jim!
(Looks like tweets were scrubbed before the account was pulled.)
990-EZ, I was trolling their thread at Fark
They (news media) raised the bar for acceptable doubts by looking the other way on zero, that it will be hard for them to go back to any kind of serious scrutiny.
The October 2000 surprise (GWB’s DUI) came extremely close to throwing the election to Gore. It lowered Republican turnout. Now the bar is so high that it’s hard to conceive of a Romney revelation that would suppress significantly.
The only surprise that may work is some kind of international conflagration. Or a staged right wing attack on a government facility with lots of innocent victims. Sort of Reich-stag on the Potomic.
Short Form, Return of Organization Exempt From Income Tax.
I dunno. Maybe. But the blurred image looks like there should be an additional section on the first page.
Either those 6 pages show up on ebay with a starting bid of one million or it’s back to selling kidneys.
:)
oopsy (lol)
Oh, noes! Proof positive that Romney made money!?!
Bullwinkle ... is ... a ...
Site is down. Twitter feed is gone. So will there be an October Surprise or was this all hype?
Charles NoBrickashaw "Big Bird" Coburn's successful motion to quash has meant at least a temporary end to the web site. Luckily, most children are unaware that the popular stage name "Big Bird" was also Coburn's porn star tag.
I'm going to cross post this at your popular DUFU thread, since I see it has some bearing to the latest news there...
Looks like burnt toast with possible image of Jesus.
That was fun to read!! I would share more, but I just got up from a nap and I won’t be human for awhile. ;>)
Do you think Obama sealed those records too. Executive order or something to the effect. LOL
Hmmmm... I might try that. ;>)
I just tried the website. AVG blocked a virus, closed the browser. Definitely a hoax, possibly an attack site.
No matter what it is, the November Surprise will be a *lot* bigger. :’)
Thanks Orange1998.
LMAO ... post of the thread!!!
HAH!
So maybe this is just baloney that got out of hand. We shall soon see.
