November Surprise

Who needs an October Surprise to make your opponent in the elections look bad when you can arrange for a November surprise that fixes everything in one fell swoop.

First off, Chris Coates has testified before congress on the Just-us departments handling of the Black Panther case. It seems that while the Ku Klux Klan is reduced to a hand full of beer-drinking rednecks, the new Black Klux Klan is boldly going where Robert Byrd has gone before, and up till now, no one is calling them on it.

Fox covered Coates. Everyone else covered Colbert teaching the amateur clowns how a real professional does it.

Meantime, enforcement of the portion of the Voting rights act requiring periodic cleansing of the voter rolls has been dropped. Several states have been implicated.

Apparently the states in question include Maryland, Arkansas, Massachusetts, Oregon, and Tennessee. Several other states including Indiana, Mississippi, Texas, and Kentucky now have more registered voters than people of voting age.

You see, it doesn't matter if your opponent gets 54% of the registered voters in your district, as long as you get 55%. The surprise comes after the election in this case.
