The Republican party is bracing itself - and preparing to fight back - against Gloria Allred's rumored "October Surprise" on Republican presidential hopeful, Mitt Romney, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.
"We're doing too well to risk 'an Allred,' she can be stopped, but it will take action on our behalf," a GOP watchdog group blogged, asking supporters to contact Romney's campaign headquarters, the Republican National Committee and Judicial Watch.
As previously reported, Drudge Report founder and respected politico, Matt Drudge, tweeted Thursday: "Here she comes. Hearing Gloria Allred out there again, about to make a move. After all, it's her time of the campaign. Team O at the ready!!"
Allred, an outspoken supporter of President Barack Obama refused to confirm, or deny, Drudge's prediction, telling RadarOnline.com: "I have no comment at this time about Mr. Drudge's Tweet. I don't discuss meetings with potential clients."
The Red Side of Life, Conservative Musings from New York says on their website, "Gloria Allred Prepares Anti-Mitt Strike. You Can STOP Her Now! (action!) Don't underestimate Gloria Allred's ability to inflict damage. The media will 'eat up' anything she feeds them and turn it into an endless scandal. Recall she took down Cain and RINO Whitman with NO EVIDENCE. We're doing too well to risk 'an Allred.' She can be stopped, but it will take action on our behalf."
The blog asks supporters to "please make these two calls. We will only get their attention if we bombard them. If you get VM, leave a message," to the Republican National Committee and Mitt Romney's national presidential campaign headquarters.
"The critical points to get across: Warn them about the pending attack (they really may not know) - Explain the severity of damage Allred can inflict - Demand that they get their teams of lawyers to launch a pre-emptive strike against Allred, coming down on her first like a ton of bricks -This is no trifling matter. Let's roll!"
During GOP Meg Whitman's run to become governor of California, Allred represented Nicky Diaz, a former housekeeper for the Whitman family. The housekeeper alleged that she was terminated from her employment because she was an illegal immigrant and that could have derailed Whitman's quest to become California's first female governor. Whitman ultimately lost the election to Democrat Jerry Brown.
Allred was a delegate for President Obama at the DNC in North Carolina last summer.
Most polls show the presidential race between President Obama and Governor Romney to be in a statistical dead heat, with both candidates heavily courting the female vote.
Lance Armstrong and Paul Ryan juiced together?????
They are probably going to smear Ryan.
********
I think you’re right. The sleazy Dem operatives have been gunning for him for a long time.
All Commie Red is likely trying to time her “surprise” that it has an effect and hoping that it does not get debunked before the election.
If she is in any way an affiliate of the 0bama campaign, couldn't the Republicans in Congress get involved in this if true? We know the DOJ wouldn't give a sh!t since they only serve JustUs.
OR she has nothing and is enjoying people wondering if she has something..I saw Romney at that Alfred Smith dinner last night on TV..that looked like one relaxed man..if there was anything, ANYTHING that could bring him down he sure isn’t showing it..looked like a pretty cool cucumber if you ask me..a guy that knows he’s a few weeks away from becoming President
Prepare a rapid response ahead of the allegation so devastating it will discourage the opposition; challenge them to a cosmic game of chicken. Remember Mutually Assured Destruction?
From the comment section on the Daly caller:
“Someone already posted this below, but it’s worth repeating because this is what’s coming. It’s a perfect mix of Mormonism and the War on Women (and Mitt’s claim that he supports abortion if the mother’s life is in danger). Coincidentally, she also now lives in California (Allred’s stomping grounds).
Have you heard of Carrel Hilton Sheldon? If not, you should, and here’s why. She was a woman who supposedly needed an abortion to save her life. Mitt was a 36-year old bishop at the time and was adamantly opposed. She had the abortion but claims she was so traumatized by Mitt that she left the church.
Still don’t think this is “it”? It was just written about in the Daily Kos 2 hours ago.

This might be part of it. 30 years ago
I think it’s probably B.S. but I called anyway.
Correct. All she needs is to find a single disgruntled former employee who is desperate for money and will say anything in return.
Agree. True or not, it will dominate the news for the week(s) leading to the election and risk turning off early voters.
Speaking of Herman Cain, whatever happened to those accusers? When Cain dropped out of the race, they disappeared off the face of the earth, never to be heard from again.
Gloria Aldred might have something like proof that an illegal immigrant used to work for the Romney Family. This is how she got Meg Whitman tossed from the Guv race. Don’t know. I’m just speculating.
Do you think that there are people following Gloria Allred, tapping into her cell phone calls, like that couple who followed Newt Gingrich?
She was able to sling enough dirt to make Romney win the primary. Who knows what she could do.
Slimey dirty Chicago step tricks. Her reputation precedes her. It will backfire and garner sympathy for Romney.
Who would’ve thought the next Civil War would be between men and women? Looks like we’re headed that direction.
It has to be some woman that worked for Romney some time ago. She'll say he wronged her somehow, she was passed up for raises, they wouldn't stock her favorite soft drink in the coke machines...something. Can't be too difficult to find some over emoted woman somewhere that can say bad things about him.
