The week that wasn't
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- "Brace yourselves," we were told. "It's coming ..."
"It" could've applied to any of those dire predictions heard leading up to the presidential election.
A terrorist attack, always a threat in the post-9/11 climate, seemed to many a more ominous possibility during election week.
A U.S. senator even closed his Capitol Hill office, citing what he called "top secret intelligence."
"I would not bring my two sons to Capitol Hill between now and the election. So I'm not going to put other peoples' sons and daughters at a risk that I'm not there to share myself," said Sen. Mark Dayton (D-Minnesota).

Thank God that was the case.
