Another Jimmy Carter belly flop.

Ruki says

That means it is highly probable Romney will kick Obama's ass, as the challenger being this close now usually breaks into the lead at the last moment when the votes are cast.

Like McCain did?

This election is extremely similar to Bush/Kerry

Too bad Obama will win anyway...

Buried under the headlines in the WJS today was a small article saying
Iranian oil production has dropped recently by quite a bit. In the
article was a brief mention that Canada closed its embassy and told
Iranian diplomats to leave Ottawa.
An article this morning on Yahoo news, which is already taken off of
its list of news links, said that Canada made the annoucement after its
diplomats were already safely out of Iran. The Yahoo article said
Canada is cutting ties because the current government disagrees with
Iran's policies. But usually there is something more behind a story
like this than just two governments disagreeing on policy (like the
last time Canada cut its relations with Iran).

Maybe something is brewing over there. The timing of it could even be
related to the presidential election here. The headlines have been
unusually quiet about Israel-Iran.

In some ways this is true the difference being the country was on a war footing in 2004 as opposed to a bad economy. The dynamics of the wars in 2004 hadn't changed quite enough for Bush to get booted. Obama's prospects are sailing between icebergs of economic disaster. We could still hit one between now and November but if not he likely wins. Romney is just a terrible candidate/politician and that sure helps Obama.

That's right and typically that is when you need to worry about war.
