Disregarding momentarily any involvment he may have in such a thing, what would the general public think?

1. Since he's been yammering (lying) about how much safer America is |
|
if there's an attack, everyone would have to question what kind of a job he's done actually making it safer.

It's kind of scary that a 5 person Al Queda cell lurking out there could determine the election.

3. Bush would say that they stopped 100 attacks for the one that got through |
|
He would say that's why America needs a President like himself who is unwavering in his determination to fight the terrorists wherever they may try to hide. It will be BS of course, but many will WANT to believe him at that time. It all depends on the timing. If it is close to the Election I think it helps Bush. Further from the election and there would be more time for people to get pissed at Bush for not being better prepared. No one can act too harsh toward the President while they are still trying to identify fatalities. The first instinct then is to rally.

4. I agree. I hope it hurts. I fear it will help. |
