[kj] Hypo-pathetically speaking

[Rob]

although the Bin Laden broadcast has sent voters sprinting to the Bush camp
no? From all of Bin laden's attempt to promote himself as an uber
politician, I'm sure he'd rather have Bush in there as it feeds his hunger
for a bloody war..........

Good question, but you can't compare the two places and you can't say for
sure what effect an attack can have. 
 
In the Spanish elections I don't think many people switched sides because of
the bombs. The idea is that the attack woke up a huge mass of people who
normally wouldn't have given a shit and they went out to vote Socialist.
Also the pro-Bush right-wing govt stabbed themselves in the foot by going
into propaganda overload trying to blame ETA, the Basque separatist group -
people smelt a rat and gave the govt a slap. 
 
As Alex says, in USA  I'm sure that the Republicans have prepared a much
better thought out plan of action should anything diabolical happen.

After seeing the latest Bin-laden video,Where he threatens America.
Do Americans think there will be another attack before the
elections,Because there was an attack on Madrid before the Spanish
elections,Which swayed the elections.The right-wing party were heading for
victory,The attack happened and the Left got in.
In America they say the vote could go either way,So if an attack on
America happened,It might just sway it for the left.
So Yankee-boys.If an attack happened on American soil(say 1000
casualties),Which you knew would get Bush out,Would you quietly rejoice.?
