Why would they attack right BEFORE the elections? That would work in Republicans' favor. Seems after Nov 4 would be better timing for them.
Not necessarily. The Dems would scream, "You see! You see! We told you so!" And the Republicans would only have, "Hey, you didn't like anything we were proposing." Either way there would be alot of dead people and devasation. But remember that the Islamonazis go by their 7th century calculations of time, not that of the infidel, and they're very into symbolism.
They think we're like the Spain.
