I know from other threads that alot of freepers disagree, but I don't see a pre-election attack meaning that America would choose appeasement and go with Kerry. If most people wanted us to fold, Bush would have approval levels at 30% since all he has done is go on offense since 9/11.

I agree that we'd see a rally-round-flag response in this country UNLESS the Islamists came in to the USA via Mejico...

I'm with you. I don't know anyone who would admit to wanting peace with Al Qaeda. I assume such people exist. I am sure this bloc will go 100 percent for Kerry, but I hope they are a distinct minority.

I have to disagree. I saw a snippet over at Lucienne.com (and another someplace else, memory fails) which said that the difference was about 5%. That's all it took, 5% to sway the election over to the socialists.

Now, think of the states in the upcoming election that are deemed "close" or "toss-ups". 5% could make a BIG difference in the electoral college.

We can only hope that our fellow Americans would not react like euro-weenies and vote for Kerry; but even if just a few switch over, it could mean big trouble for us and the World.

But that's not the only dynamic. Think about how many Americans would think in the wake of a new 9/11, "Bush was supposed to protect us from this kind of thing happening again, and he obviously failed."
