Michael Moore's self-confessed "op-ed piece" will have zero impact on the outcome of the election.

Everyone who wants to see it would never have voted for the President under any circumstances.

The film will change absolutely no one's mind.

It is simply another product Moore is marketing to his fan base. It will be very profitable - he made Bowling for Columbine for $4M and it took in $21M at the box office.

He made Fahrenheit 9/11 for $6M. Assuming that there are about 3-4 million broken glass Bush haters in the US who have $10 to spend he could clear almost $35M on this film.

Quite simply, Michael Moore has found a way to profit by blatantly exploiting the 9/11 atrocity without any serious mainstream criticism.

By the way...can anyone provide numbers on how "The Day After Tomorrow" fared at the box office?

Let's hope that F911 goes by the same path.

If it is sufficiently anti-Iraq War, it might help move some of the people who see it to vote for Ralph Nader instead of Jean al-Query who actually supported the war, before he didn't support it. That will ultimately HELP President Bush.

Beware the Law of Unintended Consequences, Mr. Moore.
