Terrorism is BY FAR the most important thing on peoples minds. If we get attacke again (dirty bomb perhaps ), the other issues wont matter much . Rudy so far is the best for the job.
All this fear of terrorism is getting old. If it happens, people will adapt and overcome. They will gain resolve, be more alert and life will go on. Just like when terrorists & saboteures struck during all past wars.
What we need to fear is politicians using terrorism as an excuse to arbitrarily destroy our constitutional rights.
No, it's not. It ceased to be a major issue by 2003, and George W. Bush would have lost in November 2004 if John Kerry hadn't been such an inept candidate.
If the GOP intends to run a candidate on the "terrorism" mantra in 2008, it's going to lose -- and badly.
