PREDICTION: October Surprise - Bookmark This Thread

Everybody likes to talk about October surprises and I think there's a major surprise in the works.

DUers are going to skoff at me because of this, but here goes:

In Late October, T. Boone Pickens will endorse Barack Obama as the best candidate to handle the energy crisis in a responsible manner.

Now please, hear me out on this. I think I understand what's going to happen

Watching the T. Boone Pickes' ads and listening to Barack Obama on energy, the two are completely convergent. Obama wants federal moneys to go into alterantive energies and Pickens wants to move into alternative energy sources because he sees where petroleum is going.

Pickens wants to build a huge windfarm in the Great Plains Wind Corridor. He also wants to convert transportation energy from standard petroleum to natural gas. This fits in with Obama's overall plan and would also be bbeneficial to the economy.

Think of it, several problems solved in one action.

This would eb the biggest public works project for energy since the TVA (Tennessee Valley Authority). It lowers our dependence upon foreign oil and moves us forward on lessening the effects of global warming.

The puzzle pieces fit.

so bookmark this thread and see if I'm right.
