Republican Fear Factor Predictions Contest
With just a few days left before the election, the Republicans are due to soon unleash some type of horror on the general public in hopes of frightening up enough votes to win. Let's see if we can predict what they are cooking up before they unleash it.
Contest: What will the 2008 Republican fear tactic be? Make your guess below, and if you are right, I'll promote 2 of your vids.
Rules:
-Feel free to let your imagination run wild, but let's leave it at one prediction per person please. If you do want to throw out more than one idea, please indicate the one you are going to stand behind.
-Please be specific - for instance, odds are high that the RNC fear bait will involve Osama bin Laden; so if he is in your prediction, please explain how they will use him specifically.
-If multiple tactics are used, I will award 2 promotes to all winning predictions.
-If the fear tactic is not guessed, the closest prediction (as judged by comments) will be declared the winner.
-Ayers, Wright or all other issues that has been extensively covered so far in this election will not count, unless there is some major new twist involved.
-Have fun.

Tsk, tsk dystopianfuturetoday, brainstorming for McCain?
I think they're just gonna go with the only thing they have: Ayers.
The RNC has nothing more. They've shot all of their guns.
^Really? I can't help but think there will be some attempt at a Hail Mary in the last minute of the game. Maybe I'm wrong.
Oh bump up the color board to some new Amber or Orange level. Push out a new Osama tape that connects Obama with terrorists. Culminating in a small level attack in a place you never heard of.
Shameless whoring of their latest fear ad and McCain's advisor saying we should fear Obama.
The ad is basically "vote for me or you will die".
3 days before the election israel launches a pre-emptive air strike against Iran's nuclear facilities using low-yield nuclear weapons. Iran responds by sending dozens of Shahab-3 missiles on Tel Aviv and Haifa. Human bombs are exploding in major cities across EU and US. President Bush suspends election and declares martial law. Within 48 hours army units patrol every major city in the US and the coalition of US and NATO forces starts bombing Tehran...
A story that's gaining momentum on the YouTubes: Obama is not a natural-born citizen of the U.S.
Perhaps the McCain camp will go there?
Obama clearly is Natural Born, he was born in Hawaii
The only possibility is that they can prove that Obama was born in Kenya and they faked his birth certificate. Short of that it will never be an issue, because the govt and hospital have Obama on record being born in Hawaii.
The idiot lawyer on YouTube is a complete attention whore. He sued Bush over 9/11. He is a fake scoundrel that has more discipline actions against him for being the world's most sleazy lawyer.
Besides, do you think the GOP have some proof on the birth certificate front and they are just waiting until the last moment to spring it?
Technically, I believe if Obama was elected and proven to be non-natural born, then Biden would become President. Or the senate votes to appoint someone.
McCain aides claim Obama is a cyborg from the future sent here to annihilate Sara Conners, Kate Hudson, and Kiefer Sutherland in order to pave the way for a Russian invasion in 2042.
Bin Laden turns up dead 4 days before the election. Except it's not a trick, they really just get him at the perfect time.
I'll give three:
Fox news puts some guy on the air in the last 24 hours who fraudulently claims he had gay sex with Obama.
Cheney orders a "false flag" attack on U.S. Naval forces by Marines pretending to be Iranians.
Osama bin Laden releases a tape reportedly saying "I'm so glad you're about to elect my dear friend Barak Hussein Mohammed Obama, he has been such a valuable member of Al Qaeda." Nov 6th we find out that he was really just giving a shout out to Bush for all the help he's given him over the last several years. Oops.
Though I'm thinking the same as blankfist -- they've already shot their wad. I doubt we'll make it through next week without more ads that bring up Rev. Wright, and I'll bet Bush will bump up the terror alert level for no good reason, but mostly I think all of the above would either be ignored, or push people towards Obama.
3 days before the election we will be told that Sarah Palin is the illegitimate daughter of Ronald Reagan. Following this, McCain will no longer run for president, but instead, switch with Palin to become her VP candidate (they also change their slogan to: "Is this enough change for you?").
They will proceed with: Fueling racial divides to fracture the peace estabolished by civil rights, therefore causing race riots. In which case some one will attempt on Obama's life. Only causing the current president to install martial law and finally destroying the constitution, then calling off the elections and declaring himself the supreme and ultimate leader.
This thread is totally immaterial, as Miss Palin doesn't need to fabricate any lies to put Obama Bin Laden on the run. The facts are more than enought to send John McHero into the White House and get this country back on track, away from the Democratic congress that has led the country into disarray.
I've got one, I've got one. BillOreilly and quantummushroom will get their 100 gold star.
An assassination attempt by a black militant. But I don't really think that will happen.
Don't try to scare us, you fear-mongering producer of weapons-grade a$$grav33.

Jesus tells Bush where to find Osama bin Laden, and we invade Pakistan to get him. While there, our troops find the Ark of the Covenant. All of a sudden, Nazi ninjas descend upon the scene and steal back the ark. Unfortunately for them, the leader drinks water from some golden cup and dies, since it's totally not the cup of Jesus. Bush knows this, so he travels to the site and finds the real holy grail, and he is filled with alien crystal skulls, as snakes surround him. Then he grows ten times in size, stomping his way through the Middle East. He takes out Iran and all of al-Qaeda with one step, thus eradicating terror in the Middle East. Seeing a once-in-a-lifetime chance, Israel asks Bush to destroy the Dome of the Rock, which he does. Construction begins on a new Jewish temple, which brings Jesus back to the Mt. of Olives. Armageddon is fought and eventually Jesus and Giant George W. Bush destroy the devil and his fallen angels. The world explodes and Obama comes down to bring us all to the New Heaven, saying, "You were right. I am God. Now tax cuts for everyone!"
The End.
If they cannot find an excuse for code orange or convince Bin Laden to release a new tape this autumn, they will emphasise the endorsement by terrorist groups, rogue regimes and European socialist leaders.
They will say that since Obama is the preferred candidate of the rest of the world, he will not look out for average americans, but instead focus on his international credibility. They will further hint that you should vote for McCain to teach the world a lesson for meddling in internal american affairs.
All of the above.
Then it will rain ash and brimstone and the seas will turn to blood.
Ayers and Wright are Obamas same-sex parents! Dun dun duuuuuun.
Uhh uhhh, they thaw up the body of Osama bin Laden, who was caught a long time ago, and lets McCain reveal that HE caught him while on a routine trip to Iran - which now has weapons of mass destruction!
How about "Obamunism": http://www.obomunism.com/
This individual joined a Twitter Ring I'm participating in. I haven't decided whether to follow yet.
Also, I received e-mail on Saturday that Sean Hannity will be revealing information about Obama on his show on Sunday night. The cable listing says 8 p.m. CST.
The roads will break, there will be a fog, then there will be Pyramid Head!
O LAWD!
on a side note... this is a scenario that actually scares me. Silent hill for every one!
obama wants whites to become slaves
McBush decides to finally bend his rules on the ONE THING defining this election: PRECONDITIONS.
Har!
US Destroyer in the Persian Gulf will be attacked by Iran vessel in the days leading up to election. History will later show this to have been the work of Isreali intelligence.
BushMcCain wins FL, NC, OH, VA and in the middle of the night, PA is called for McCain giving him 273 electoral votes. The media chalks it up to racism and other invented stories on why polling failed again. Russian and other international observers point to the many irregularities and irony of the US being the only major "Democracy" that does not have fair elections.OK, FOX radio has been droning on about this since yesterday. It's a videotape in the hands of the L.A. Times. The fact that the newspaper won't share the tape, leaves things up to our imaginations. Now that is scarier than anything we'll actually see.
