* "A CIA official who had a top role during the run-up to the Iraqi war charges the White House with ignoring intelligence that said there were no weapons of mass destruction or an active nuclear program in Iraq." (link)
* "In an email Senator Edwards sent today, he asks each of us to sign his letter to Alberto Gonzalez demanding that Special Prosecutor Fitzgerald be empowered to investigate the President's role in manipulating intelligence on Iraq: "If we can flood the Attorney General’s office with our letters of outrage, he will have no choice but to act."

"If there is no "October Surprise," I would be shocked. And if it is not a high-risk undertaking, it would be a first. Without such a gambit, and the public always falls for them, Bush is going to lose control of Congress. Should that happen, his presidency will have effectively ended, and he will spend the last two years of it defending all the mistakes he has made during the first six, and covering up the errors of his ways.There is, however, the possibility of another terrorist attack, and if one occurred, Americans would again rally around the president - wrongly so, since this is a presidency that lives on fear-mongering about terror, but does little to truly address it. The possibility that we might both suffer an attack, and see a boost to Bush come from it, is truly a terrifying thought."
truly terror-fying

Luke,
Don't you think a terrorist attack might actually work against the Republicans this time, by showing they can't protect the country?
Then again, never understimate the stupidity of the American public...
How about another videotape message from Osama on the eve of the election?
yeah - i've said before that i think that we are finally at a point where an attack would be a net negative in terms of public opinion
the problem is that we still have a problem with a false-flag op. it's almost conventional wisdom now that the only thing that can save the egadmin is a terrorist attack - so i'm sure that a false-flag op has occured to them - whether seriously or in passing.
the problem is, if there's a terrorist attack and there's a kneejerk martial law reaction, then public opinion will be irrelevant. i suspect that they have a PATRIOTACT2 up their sleeve just in case - and they could literally suspend the constitution and install the shadow govt immediately. we know that they have these plans in place.
