Not that I'm paranoid or anything, but I came across this little nugget over at Politico:
McCain camp making news in the morning
On what, they won't say.
"We'll have something to talk about," is all a campaign aide would allow.
Check back again in this space or over on our front-page in the morning.
So I ventured down below into the comments and here's what I found.....
UPDATE:
Here's the "news"
That "news" in the morning
Sure enough, it's Bill Ayers.
The McCain campaign is launching a web ad accusing Obama of trying to hide his ties to the 60s-era radical.
"Too risky for America," the ad concludes.
The idea here is to keep Ayers in the mix without spending precious dollars to put real points behind it on TV. Republicans know that cable TV stations will play the spot for free, regardless of it being a web ad.
It's this comment in particular that has me a little nervous:
Between 8:45 PM and 9:15 PM tonight (Oct 8) on Intrade, someone just bet a LOT of money against Obama winning the presidency. And I mean a LOT. His stock, which has been over 70 for a couple of days now and at 76 most of the time today dipped down to 64 or so in those 20 minutes under heavy betting before recovering immediately after 9:15 to 73... Very strange.. is there something someone knows?? What is the news tomorrow, JMart?
I must confess that I don't know enough about Intrade to confirm this guy's story, or even to know if it matters, but it does have me a bit worried. Grumpy must attempt bold game changing moves now. Maybe I'm just being paranoid?
