Poll question: How WILL Kerry respond to Ridge's "election cancellation" comments?
Remember, these are general quotes and I am speaking generally here./ The IDEAS BEHIND the quotes, as it were.

Predictions, please?

I'm afraid that based on my knowledge of Totalitarianism and History (as well as those who strove against Totalitarianism, both effectively and ineffectively), my answer is

Say NOTHING

And I'd be VERY happy to be proven wrong on this one.

1. kick
In case you haven't noticed, this poll asks what WILL Kerry do, while the other asks what SHOULD he do.

2. There are two good reactions here. My choice was the say
nothing because the idea is too ridiculous to countemance with a reply. On the other hand, considering the cabal in the WH, it might be necessary to throw a bucket of Cheney lard on the notion. They are probably throwing out the option to see how it goes over with the sheeple.

3. I don't know what you are talking about
Did Ridge actually say the elections could be postponed due to terrorist threats?

4. In response to a reporter's follow-up question, essentially yes
They are considering the legality and Constitutionality of doing so.

In other words: Same as authorizing torture in Abu Grahib.
