Speculation
Posted by Jill | 2:18 PM

Not "speculum", Mr. O'Reilly, speculation.

From a posting at the Kerry/Edwards blog, via Kos:

"anyway, I am new tonight... as you may not have seen me before in here.. just a FYI that I am deaf here and can read lips okay..
at the end of debate where Kerry and Bush shook hands.. Bush was asking Kerry, Can I talk to you later tonight? Kerry said sure then Bush said where would you be? I missed what Kerry said.

I wondered what Bush wanted to talk to Kerry about??

... not good. Not. Good. At all.
I watched them talk after, and it seemed like Kerry was surprised... something was off. I was wondering what was said...

When the president asks to talk to you, you don't not meet with him...

Whatever Bush says, whatever it sounds like, I wouldn't trust it worth a damn.

But Kerry's a senator... he knows the game."


So I wonder what Bush wanted to talk to Kerry about? Speculation among the Kossacks runs the gamut from Bush planning to depart the ticket due to health reasons (the sagging jaw, the spittle, the drinking, the dry mouth, the falling, the obvious cognitive impairment, the refusal to have a physical till after the election) and being replaced with a more palatable option, like Giuliani or McCain; to the Dems having hard evidence of something nah-sty from Bush's past and cutting a deal.

The same post links to a post on Friends of Liberty that a FEMA Disaster "simulation" is set for Election Day (sort of the way a terrorism drill was set for 9/11?), so it's also possible that Bush, seeing that Kerry now has at least an even chance of winning, wanted to alert him to the potential shit that's about to go down. Of course this flies in the face of the "rigged election" theory, so at this point the feedback interference coming into my tinfoil hat is deafening.

Or it could have just been "See you on election night." Though knowing Bush, he'd have added "sucka!" to the end of it.
