Odd...

There are 15 days and a wakeup left until election day. Bush takes the day off the campaign trail today. Weird, that. Here's one story, but it just ain't passin' the smell test, if you know what I mean:

The president took a day off from campaigning. While his rival was in Ohio and Florida, Bush readied what aides called a major speech on terrorism for Monday in New Jersey, where millions live within sight of the terrorist-scarred lower Manhattan skyline.
I post this only because it's really strange. The guy's in the fight of his life, and he takes the day off with two weeks to go until the finish line. A guy like Bush has minions to write a pesky "major speech on terrorism". If anyone cares to research where Chimpy DeButcher was supposed to be today, let us know where he cancelled his appearances.

Speaking of which, anyone heard from Darth Cheney in the last couple of days? I've Googled and LexisNexis'd the heck out of this, and am not finding hide nor hair of Darth since Thursday. So I'm also putting an APB out for Darth - please report any sightings (virtual or otherwise).

Maybe it's nothing, but I'm hearing faint alarm bells...which could just be my pre-election paranoia kicking in...either way, it's going to be an interesting week upcoming.
