October Surprise?

For John, BLUF:  Interesting review of how this worked in 1992.  Nothing to see here; just move along.

Does Mueller Have an October Surprise?

From The American Thinker, by Mr Steve McCann, 5 September 2018.

Here is the lede plus one:

The investigation that was ostensibly initiated to ascertain if the Trump campaign colluded with the Russians to affect the 2016 election has been ongoing for twenty-seven months.  Seventeen months of which have been in the hands of Special Counsel Robert Mueller and his Democrat phalanx of investigators and prosecutors spending in excess of $1.4 million a month.)  This prolonged inquisition has produced no evidence or indictments supporting the collusion allegation.  Yet the investigation marches on with no end in sight.

But is there, in fact, an end game?  Is that end game waiting until late October to impact an election in order to switch control of Congress to the Democrats?  Is it to make certain Trump cannot run for re-election in 2020?  Or is it both?

I wouldn't be surprised, but I would be disappointed.
