"Daschle will not be jumping ship on the war effort right away."

Very curious, wouldn't you say? Daschle will probably no longer oppose the terrorism bill being pushed by the administration; in fact, he and the other Democrats will probably ramrod it through. And Tom Brokaw and his counterparts will doubtless have a whole new perspective on the war against terrorism.

Why would the terrorists want to radicalize these two factions who previously were not as suuportive of the war effort as other aspects of American society? Are the terrorists just that stupid? How can someone who can manufacture or have access to weapons grade anthrax possibly be that stupid?

Hmmmm?

"Stupid" is the wrong word. They are unable to see the short term future clearly.

Hence, each of the terrorists got into trouble with someone on their way to the airports.

In Boston, they had a fight with the parking attendant.

They have a frontal lobe defect -- in addition to being reprehensible.
