C'mon you know it's coming...
... around Oct. 27 there is going be a terror warning that terrorists are planning to attack polls in large metropolitan areas like NYC, LA, Detroit, etc. This is a given, * will do whatever to win. So what can we do about it?

I was thinking that since according to the Repukes the terrorists want * to lose wouldn't it make since for them to attack * strongholds. Wouldn't cities like Dallas, Salt Lake City, etc. be more likely targets? I know that if I were voting in a Repuke county I would be scared shitless.

Maybe we should start mentioning this.

5. Hell no, they want to SUPPRESS THE VOTE
...as Rove said in his speech at the last RNC confab before their Reichian convention. How to do that? Claim a terra threat against schools that are also used as polling places in heavily democratic states. Remember, a buncha Chechens sneaked across the Messican border awhile back...the White House told us that! And they found a CD rom in Baghdad with plans of US schools on it, oh yes indeed, they did!

What will schools do? Post police, make it hard to get in or out, create long lines, hoping that people will give up and go home. Or they'll move polling places, and not tell people where they are located.

It's Rovian, baybee...that is how he works.

Anything to win.

6. bin Laden, Iran and Russia
are all supporting Bush in the election.

'Terrorist' attacks or alerts would mean Bush is falling down on the job of protecting America. He was supposed to have made America safer.

Attacks or alerts seem unlikely, other than as an election ploy by Bush...and a dumb one at that since it's likely to backfire on him.

8. Bush Voters would stay home in fear; Kerry voters would go anyway
At least that's my take on this plan.
