Why "President Obama" will cause World War III

OK, maybe the headline is a little misleading, but let me explain.

You've probably seen polls out this week that show Barack Obama opening up a lead in the race for the White House, quite possibly as large as double digits. That could change quickly -- Michael Dukakis' 17-point lead over George H.W. Bush in 1988 is now the stuff of legend -- but with gas prices rising toward $5-a-gallon and Americans' homes now worth less than they were 3 1/2 years ago, the GOP and the White House is well aware that there are big problems looming in November.

Which means only one thing.

We -- or at least our closest regional ally, Israel -- need to start a war with Iran! Pronto! As in, before January 20, 2009. For all the talk over the last generation of an "October surprise" in an American election, we've arguably never had one before. But things could be different this time in around.
