Decided to watch Bill O'Reilly tonight

He had Krauthammer on. Several tidbits from his mouth:

1. The hurricane was the October surprise

2. Romney would have won had the election been held last Monday.

3. Romney won all 3 debates and the only mistake he made was not hammering Obama for Libya in the last debate.

4. Romney was up by 5 or 6 a week ago and then started dropping till Saturday when he started coming up again.

5. Romney will keep going up. The new polls that come out tomorrow will show him ahead. (**There are polls coming out tomorrow?)

6. If Romney loses, it will be Christie's fault.

Now he has some Democratic strategist named Pat Cadell on. He won't make a prediction, he says it could go either way. He agrees Romney should have gone after Obama for Libya.

I like watching them when there is a big story - like the election. They always put such a bizarre spin on stuff. Last week I watched them the morning after the hurricane and they spent more time talking about Benghazi than the hurricane. They reported that Norm from Cheers was in the hospital before they reported anything on the hurricane.

It's incredible that they drag out Caddell to provide "balance" ... it's no more sincere than if 20 years ago they had claimed Strom Thurmond ("a former Democrat&quot provided accurate "balance" against Bob Dole in discussing Senate politics.

FAUX Snooze puts him on and lists him as a Democrat for a reason.

4. The Benghazi dog won't hunt

When I got yet another email from my MIL about it, I said, did you realize that David Petreaus is running the CIA? Two of the guys who died were CIA, so they were already on the ground, and we had yet more agents on the ground. That's why the administration has to be careful when and how they respond.

Furthermore, I reminded her that Romney himself is now receiving intelligence briefings. And considering that he's been an opportunist every chance he had in the past, if he's not touching Benghazi, it should tell her something.

They hated him last summer, pretended to like him after he bought the primary. If/When he loses they will have no problem sinking him so he can not run again 2016.

19. & the six points in the O.P. prove O'LOOFAH's claim to be an INDEPENDENT, right?!1 CADDELL

was Jimmy CARTER's pollster who was given credit for the '76 win. He has not had a campaign win ever since, including the New Coke. CARTER had a nest of vipers at his breast: CADDELL, one of the co-founders of The Carlyle Group (David RUBENSTEIN, who, however had done millions of charity), and Tweety who has been in political rehab for the past four years but who was a vicious Rethug tool at least back to '96 and especially every day of the year of Campaign 2000 and for almost all of Shrub's eight years.
