Mark your calendars: An earth-shattering revelation about President Barack Obama or GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney will be revealed on Monday at 7:30 p.m. ET. Or will it be at 5:30 p.m. ET on Monday?
A new website, octsurprise.com, popped up this week, and has taken the Internet by storm with the assertion that "one of your presidential candidates isn't being honest with you. Stay tuned to find out which one it is." A timer on the website counts down to 7:30 p.m. ET, though a corresponding Twitter account, @OctSurprise, is telling followers that the secret will be revealed at 5:30 p.m. that day. That's just hours before Obama and Romney meet in Boca Raton, Fla., for the final presidential debate.
Speaking of debates, the Twitter account claims that whatever the surprise is, it was mentioned during the vice presidential debate last week, as well as the second presidential debate on Tuesday.
The revelation, according to the Twitter account, will be in the form of six documents:
