Gloria Allred's October Surprise is About to Break Against Romney
Last edited Sun Oct 21, 2012, 10:59 AM USA/ET - Edit history (1)
This is the speculation of all speculation. I read it today in the Boston Herald, without any explanation.
I haven't seen it here at DU just yet, so if it's a dupe, I apologize.
If this is the first post on the subject, here it is.

REPUBS FREAKING OUT: Gloria Allred’s Rumored “OCTOBER SURPRISE†Though She Won’t Confirm Or Deny
Gee, I never thought Gloria Allred would interject herself in the presidential election, but she is rumored to have an “October Surprise†that will probably call a press conference to slam Mitt Romney with some “epic†revelation. A disgruntled maid or handyman? Or a mistress? Allred is rumored to be preparing to reveal some secret or scandal to torpedo Mitt Romney’s chances at winning the election. You will recall Gloria Allred torpedoed Meg Whitman’s chances for winning the gubernatorial election in California when she represented a disgruntled former housekeeper, Nicky Diaz, who was an illegal immigrant. Needless to say, Whitman lost the election to Jerry Brown, a Democrat. Ms. Allred won’t confirm or deny the rumors involving Mitt Romney, nonetheless, some Republicans are scared. LOL.
The Republicans are going nuts over this rumor, starting with Matt Drudge, who tweeted on Thursday that this was coming:
Here she comes. Hearing Gloria Allred out there again, about to make a move. After all, it’s her time of the campaign. Team O at the ready!!
— MATT DRUDGE (@DRUDGE) October 18, 2012
Conservative blog, The Red Side of Life, is freaking out, saying Gloria Allred took down Herman Cain and could do the same thing with Mitt Romney. But wait, has Gloria Allred even said she has evidence against Mitt Romney? No. Why don’t we wait to hear from her on that first? If ever on this subject. Gloria Allred has them quaking in their boots because she usually wins at the PR game, doesn’t she? This will be interesting to watch. Why are they freaking out? It’s interesting to watch the Republicans scramble over a rumor.

I never saw a candidate so coddled by the media before in my life. Here is a man who dodged the draft, outsourced U.S. jobs, evades U.S. taxes, won't release his tax returns, banks offshore, invests in communist countries, destroyed hard drives, took his state from 36th-47th, hates half the country, and on TOP OF THAT; has no specifics or details on anything and his tax plan has been debunked every which way.
Media? Silent. Except when they're propping him up for a horse race. Mitt Romney is a fraud, a CON MAN.

Only 2 weeks to election day. If you're going to leak something "BIG" let's get it out there. Many states are well into early voting. Waiting much longer might not have the effect hoped for.

26. Is there anything, or are the Rs just freaking at a rumor of one...
...and the rumor is being given credence thanks to all the other bombs Romney has dropped on himself.
Clearly, they acknowledge that the Romney campaign has done a poor job of vetting their candidate, and so they take an Allred rumor seriously, even if it was started by someone on their own side fretting out loud and someone else took it seriously.

The pro-President Obama lawyer is rumoured to be preparing for her so-called 'October surprise'...

Ms Allred has refused to comment on the rumours,...

Ms Allred refused to confirm or deny the rumours regarding Governor Romney.

Well, well, well ms. allred. How about if I release a little "October Surprise" concerning you: Let's bring to light the fact that you are in a secret same sex relationship. Why are you keeping this such a secret if you are such a proud defender of women's rights??? Why aren't you standing up proudly for women who are in same sex relationships ??? Oh how I wish you would have to answer for Your behavior toward others. Next time, ms. allred, you would be wise not to forget the old adage: "It takes one to Expose one"
(snip)
While Allred is a shill who has zero credibility and will do or say anything to get attention, there are enough brainless Barry Zero lovers in this country who will believe anything she says. More dangerous is the ultra-left biased media. Never mind "truth" or "facts," they are so desperate right now that they will print anything to save their messiah, Barry Zero.

Anyone who believes Allred or the Ayatollah are ignorant and gullible..........
What did she find? A spurned high school crush? LOL..
Obama doesn't have skeletons in his closets? Obama has to rent warehouses (with the help of the American press) for his skeletons.

To be fair, she should dig up dirt on both Romney and Obama. But that will never happen.....Obama is the chosen one who can do no wrong.
There is no surprise. Romney has run before & believe me they would have used it if they had anything. I read it is more "women's" issues. Problem is that democrats think all women care about is getting laid. We also care about the economy. The economy is & always has been more important to me & women I know. It infuriates me they want to tax me to death. That's what I am listening to
Members of the Democrat Party who post at democraticunderground don't get it at all, they think Obama won the 1st and 2nd debate, they scream up and down yelling yipee, then they don't get a bump in the polls and they think there's something wrong with us. This isn't what Americans care about, they care about unemployment, spending, gas prices being high which in-turn has caused food prices and everything else to skyrocket. Start using some common sense, most Americans will see this for what it is, and they're not going to give a damn about it. :bird:
IF the members of the Democrat Party who post at democraticunderground really thought Obama won either debate and was winning there wouldn't be bindergate or the need to delude themselves with an Allred October Surprise.

I don't think she has anything. If she did, she would have released it by now. Two weeks outside the election isn't going to help any. Either way, she is a publicity hound who needs to be shut up. The only stations that take her crap as real is the MSM and MSNBC.
Frankly, she is a skank to the highest regard.
It worked on Herman Cain, so they figure it will work on Romney. I almost think that the allegation will be against Ryan. Romney has been vetted so many times for higher office, anything would have come out long ago.
Speculation has surrounded a story published last week by the left-wing website AlterNet, purporting to tell the story of women who claimed Mitt Romney advised them in the 1980s, in his capacity as a church leader, against having abortions.
It is a good thing the general public has long since stopped paying attention.

70. Does Romney have an "anchor baby?"
and has he supported that child, and claimed the child as a dependent? Is that why he won't release his tax records?
Can sealed sworn testimony be unsealed? and can gag orders be lifted? Just curious because I don't know the answer.

I thought sealed meant sealed, and gag orders could only be lifted by the courts if all parties involved agreed. But this Obama we're talking about, and the usual laws do not apply togettinghim reelected.

Obama is getting worried about losing the election. Remember how divorce records of his Illinois opponent were opened up?
I thought sealed meant sealed, and gag orders could only be lifted by the courts if all parties involved agreed. But this Obama we're talking about, and the usual laws do not apply to getting him reelected.
I am waiting to see what Trump has to say. He said on twitter that he is only tweeting about one subject tomorrow.
Oh boy. It's Boston and I bet the judge is a flaming libby. On the other hand... Romney has the money to appeal whatever order comes down from the judge. You ain't getting an appeal heard in two weeks. Not on something like this. Especially if it is a criminal case though it sounds like it is civil based on the courts name. On the other hand... Boston ain't Chicago. I think it is a net loser for obumbles. Especially if it was a settlement of some kind. I kind of doubt that though. It said probate and family court. I bet he testified for some troubled kid. If that's the case it ain't getting unsealed. I seriously doubt that there was anything criminal on Romney's part.
Look for the MSM to hammer Romney on it no matter what the result.
Me? I think I smell the last ditch effort of obumbles, sweating with desperation when Michelle tells him she likes being queen as she brings out the rusty knife and points to his balls, to win the election.
This may get really interesting. In 24 business hours of course. :popcorn:
I don't believe the goal is to have it released. I believe the goal is to plant the seed that something bad is in there. And since it is sealed Romney can't exactly go out and tell people what is in there, assuming he knows what they are looking at. The media will play their part and speculate and start rumors. I believe this is a scam.
Like the attacks on Herman Cain?

If she implies that there is something there to be unsealed and ungagged, his lawyers should immediately file suit against her client. SOMEONE had to tell Allred what the case was about, thereby violating the gag order.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid charged that Mitt Romney did not pay taxes for 10 years
Or the claims by Harry Reid;
Innuendo.......pure B-S.

Campaign8 years ago, Obama's surrogates in the media got his opponent's divorce records unsealed... not even a new trick for Obama
GOP frontrunner Jack Ryan had divorced actress Jeri Ryan in 1999, and the records of the divorce were sealed at their mutual request. Five years later, when Ryan's Senate campaign began, the Chicago Tribune newspaper and WLS-TV, the local ABC affiliate, sought to have the records released.
It sounds like they are trying to tie Romney to some kids.

Seriously, now...
Mitt Romney was heavily involved in the extremely messy divorce of one of his key supporters ... and the Boston Globe is going to court first thing Wednesday morning in an attempt to unseal the court file as well as lift a gag order ... TMZ has learned.The divorce was between Staples co-founder Tom Stemberg and his first wife Maureen. We're told the divorce battle lasted for years and was extremely ugly.Sources tell us Romney gave both a deposition in the divorce and testified in the trial. According to our sources, the Boston Globe got a tip that there was "juicy information about Romney" in the sealed documents.Romney, Stemberg and Maureen were all served papers by the Globe notifying them that the paper was trying to unseal the case and lift the gag order enforced on all parties.According to an article in the Boston Globe in 2005, Maureen received nearly 500,000 shares of Staples stock in the divorce ... but sold have her shares before the company went public.Our sources say Tom has filed papers opposing the Globe's motion. Romney's lawyers have not responded.Tom has been a major Romney supporter, even speaking for five minutes at the Republican National Convention.We're told Gloria Allred represents someone connected with the divorce and we believe -- though we have not confirmed it -- that is Maureen. If the gag order is lifted, Maureen and others could freely talk about the divorce ... less than two weeks before the election.
Is this Gloria Allred's Oct. surprise? :lmao:

Take Maureen Sullivan Stemberg, the ex-wife of Staples founder Tom Stemberg. They divorced in 1987, and, in the settlement, she received nearly 500,000 shares of Staples stock, reportedly valued at $2.25 per share. Problem was, Staples went public two years later - at $19 per share - after she had unloaded nearly half her stock.http://www.boston.com/yourlife/relationships/articles/2005/11/13/ladies_man/?page=full

This is going no where. And if Allred thinks it will, she is more stupid than I thought she was.
I am wondering if the ex-husband can sue the crap out of her for doing this, or trying to anyway. Would serve her right and he has very deep pockets.
Can sealed sworn testimony be unsealed? and can gag orders be lifted? Just curious because I don't know the answer.
Not to be outdone, The Daily Mail is reporting that Trump’s bombshell may be divorce papers (presumably never filed) for Barack and Michelle Obama.
Donald Trump is to claim that he has unearthed divorce papers of Michelle Obama and the President, according to a respected financial pundit with links to the tycoon.
It is alleged that the eccentric real estate mogul will claim that the documents show the First Lady and the President were at one point in their two decades of marriage seriously considering splitting up.
Neither is likely to amount to a hill of beans, but in the case of Obama divorce papers, any publication would be a serious case of karma having a way of catching up with someone, considering that Obama’s signature move is unsealing divorce records.
Governor Mitt Romney gave sworn testimony about his observations of Tom's role as a father to his four sons," a source close to the situation told RadarOnline.com. Our source wouldn't provide any additional information because of Governor Romney's sworn declaration and gag order.
Stemberg's first wife, Maureen, had a documentary, The Maureen Sullivan Stemberg Story: A Portrait in Courage, which aired on Lifetime. According to a 2008 press release, "Maureen Sullivan Stemberg will provide an in-depth account in this first-time tell all tale of the interweaving relationships and strange bedfellow that business has made in her life. Such luminaries include former Governor of Massachusetts, Mitt Romney - who was the former Republican nominee in the 2008 Presidential campaign, as well as one of the first major investors for Staples while he was employed by Bain Capital, Boston, MA. This story will include the injustice of the Mass. Probate Justice system. Other heavy hitting names have yet to be released in this as of yet untold story including Dola Davis Hamilton Stemberg."

This is a good strategy because if the obama campaign is trying to tie Romney to a divorce, this will be yet another thing that will fall back into obama's face. Neither one will mean a hill of beans, but in any case, it will show that obama is the same way and has no room to talk.
Not only that, but it will show just how desperate--and hollow--the Obamessiah's campaign has become.
Emily Smith Page Six â€@GossipAssassin
Much speculation in the @PageSix office about @realDonaldTrump's big Obama announcement. We're hearing its not about divorce....
This was tweeted last night:
Story will be released today at 12 noon EST on Twitter and Facebook.
All predictions re: my 12 o'clock release are totally incorrect. Stay tuned!
He said about an hour ago on twitter that he is going to release the information on both twitter and facebook at noon. And all speculation about it is false.
Whatever it is, it had better be earth-shattering so he doesn't end up making himself more of an attention grabbing whore than he already is.
Personally, I put him on the same level as Gloria Allred when it comes to cameras and microphones.

Mitt Romney Allegedly LIED in Court To Screw Over Friend's Wife
http://www.tmz.com/2012/10/24/mitt-romney-tom-stemberg-staples-lied-perjury-divorce-case-maureen/
Mitt Romney LIED under oath when he testified in the divorce of his good friend and screwed the friend's wife out of a lot of money in the process ... so claims the ex-wife of Staples' founder Tom Stemberg.
Multiple sources connected with the divorce tell TMZ ... during Tom's uber nasty divorce case with ex-wife Maureen, Mitt Romney gave a deposition and testified during the trial that Staples was worth virtually nothing. Romney testified that the company was worth very little and Tom was a dreamer and "the dream continues."
Romney characterized the Staples stock as "overvalued," adding, "I didn't place a great deal of credibility in the forecast of the company's future."
Partly as a result of Romney's testimony, Maureen got relatively little in the divorce, but we're told just weeks after the divorce ended, Romney and Tom went to Goldman Sachs and cashed in THEIR stock for a fortune. Short story -- Romney allegedly lied to help his friend and screw the friend's wife over.
snip
The full details of the case and the nature of the hearing could not be learned, but Robert Jones, an attorney at the Boston law firm of Ropes & Gray, who is representing Romney in this matter told TIME in a statement, “This is a decades-old divorce case in which Mitt Romney provided testimony as to the value of a company. He has no objection to letting the public see that testimony.â€
Trump's announcement.

He is giving $5 million dollars to a charity of obama's choosing if obama gives up his college records, and passport records. It will never happen.
You're kidding right?
What an idiot.
Least most of us on the right thought he was being a fool and he proved us right.
Nope .... Here is the press release.
(http://i49.tinypic.com/essw8y.jpg)
I wasn't expecting anything big but it could have at least been interesting.
I expected him to sue Gloria Allred for being an anus. (still hoping though)
.
Nope .... Here is the press release.
(http://i49.tinypic.com/essw8y.jpg)
I read somewhere this morning that Romney didn't care if they released the transcipts of his testamony. That led me to believe that Allred was basing her assumption on the words of a disgruntled wife and not on reality... but then again this is what Gloria does.
He did nothing wrong, so why should he care?
That is why the left is hoping the details don't get released. The truth would hurt their smear case against Romney.
Judge basically tells Gloria Allred to Shut the Front Door with her court claim: Grants Adjournment (http://newsninja2012.com/judge-basically-tells-gloria-allred-to-shut-the-front-door-with-her-court-claim-grants-adjournment/)
I just read that through http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Blacksphere/49867377595 on facebook.
Hmmm.
Wonder if Trump would have done this if Allred hadn't stuck her nose into the election? Trump does not have anything nice to say about Allred, especially after the Herman Cain witch hunt.
Trump's offer - or public blackmailing? - puts Obama in an awkward position. Obama is always saying the rich must give more to others. This is 5 million dollars ... a lot of zeros for Obama to ignore and continue to preach "spread the wealth".
Obama won't release the information, we all know that. Most people will ignore this, but will it turn turn any votes toward Romney? I doubt it, however, I do hope this does not reflect poorly back onto Romney. I just saw the report on Trump on my local noon newscast, and the anchor had a look of disdain on his face when he was reporting it. I've met him before, I don't know what his politics are, but he wasn't able to hide his expression. How many others will feel the same way?
The no audio video clip shown with the release, was Trump at a podium somewhere with Mitt and Ann Romney standing over to the side while Trump spoke. Then they all shook hands. It looked like the one from when Trump put his support behind Romney several months ago. The local channel is a CBS affiliate. Showing that clip with the report made it look like it was recent and Romneys were in agreement with Trump doing this stunt.
Thank you for the new subscription!
Are you aware there is a Conservative Cave group on Facebook?
Yes. I found it boorish. Are you the page moderator?
I agree this is all about Allred. Trump has the trump card but he can’t play it until Allred plays her card. It’s cat and mouse and Allred is the mouse.
Allred doesn’t need to have the records released. She just needs the idea of sealed records to accuse President Romney of covering up his past testimony.
Just like Allred accused Cain of sexual harassment and talked about the sealed complaint but Cain didn’t have the power to release the complaint and the company didn’t release the files either. That gave Allred the cover to make false claims and innuendo with Cain not able to fight it with documentation. Cain obviously had a problem and was ineffective in fighting it.
Now with Trump showing that Obama is hiding things, it makes it tougher for Allred to claim President Romney is hiding things. If the judge doesn’t release the sealed testimony, then they ask Romney to come clean and if he does they can then release the documentation and attack as lies anything that Presdient Romney didn’t remember exactly right from 20+ tears ago.
Trump is the ultimate trump card. He can use Allred’s own strategy against her and he is a much bigger celebrity than her. No matter what he said today, he can come out with anything else at any time and knock Allred off the news if she comes out with her own trumped up charges.
For example, if the divorce filings do exist, it can become a big deal because it is something completely new on Obama that nobody knew about. What if the filing is released and it has Michele accusing Barack of being gay or accuses him of beating her? What if she filed pictures or video of him doing gay things or pictures of her bruises back then? The press would have to cover it and it would affect the election without them being able to blame President Romney’s campaign of dirty tricks.
KIDDING! No, I didn't know about the CC page on fb. :lmao:
I'm still pissed that Trump is willing to donate $5 million to Obama's campaign, if he coughs up his records.
That's not a charity, and O asking for that would be illegal
