Fair point. I've noticed that some have argued al-qaeda won't attack before the elections because it might give Bush an advantage. The point is, they want America destroyed, whether Bush OR Kerry is in office. It may happen before or after the election, but one thing's for sure, al-qaeda don't support or want Kerry in office any more than Bush. So I don't think they care how their actions affect the choice the American people make at the polls.
