Is Anything a Surprise?

   We are beginning to see several indications of potential "October surprises".  The Democrats have used the October surprise strategy for many years.  Right now, there is the rumor that the USA and Iran will sit down for a one-on-one session of negotiations on nuclear arms.  There also are lower gas prices being predicted.  We even hear an indication that Gloria Allred may have another "client" who may throw the election into a tizzy when he/she makes some sort of charge against someone on the Romney/Ryan ticket.  These should be NO surprise to the American public.  I have come to even EXPECT it.  There may even be more of these before November 6th.
   On the other hand, there is a much more important event that really should impact the election.  Some might refer to it as the "September surprise".  This event would be the deaths of four Americans on September 11 in Benghazi.  The facts are indicating that this was NO surprise to those in the Obama administration.  The intelligence they had very clearly indicated that security in Libya was totally inadequate and that there were indeed serious threats to our citizens there.  Either the Obama administration is involved in a cover-up or they are incompetent.  Either way, this is just one more important reason that we need leadership in the White House.  We do not have good leadership there right now.
   If there is any surprise here, it is a surprise to the President's loyal supporters that he is not the ideal President that they would like to think he is.  I hope they are paying attention to this before they go to the polls and make their choice.
