The problem with your theory is that the conventional wisdom, right up through the election, was that the attacks would result in a larger majority for the party in power.

Obviously, the conventional wisdom wasn't very wise.

I don't think it is a leap to conclude that Zapatero's minions could have believed completely that a terror attack, followed by an immediate acknowledgement by al-Qaida that not only it was them, but the act was perpetrated precisely because of their leadership's stubborn collaboration with Americans, would give them a chance to win. Remember, they were behind, and nothing short of some calamity befalling the leadership would have accomplished a victory for the Socialists.

I would also like to know who organized the people in the streets after the terrorist bombings. Seems like it was organized quickly and I am wondering what group organized it. The Socialist Gov't?
