That's the whole reason that an idea that the terrorist would commit an act to some how cause an effect in the vote is rediculous. It would cause turmoil but it would be impossible to predict how the electorate would react.
The terrorists really don't care who wins. I'm certain they would prefere Kerry, but there main cause is to destroy us. That stays constant no matter who is in office. The question is, who is more prepared to deal with the threats and the after-math of future attacks that are certain to happen. An interesting treand has developed in the polls. A majority of people believe that we are losing the War on Terror, but a majority still prefere Bush, indicating that they realize that this thing is for the long haul and any negative things that happen are not nessesarily Bush's fault and certain attacks cannot be prevented. For that reason I believe that another attack would probably help Bush.
You're certain they don't care though you think they would prefer Kerry. See your on to the truth, the first part of the statement is probably true. They don't care, they are all American imperilist dogs the second part of the statement is you reading your own political ideology in to the pontential though I hope preventable future actions of hypotectical terrorisits. I hope the US governement is doing all that it can do to prevent such a terrorist attack and if it is than most likely the American public probably shouldn't hear much about its aversion.
My take is why should the terrorists want Kerry. Bush is good for business, he's the ultimate recruiting poster. I am ready to admit that this is how I see. You should admit that you think that the terrorirsts want Kerry because of your own personal prejudices and together we can realize that the terrorists don't care. Their action is unpredictiable. Who ever is president will respond to their action in a probably a heavy handed manner that may or may not help their cause. Fanatism creates more fanatism. If the terrorists want anything it is to make the US more reactionary so we make dramatic responses to terrorist actions. The only way to combat that isn't to move to the extreme in to our sides. Polarity will only breed fascism. The only way to truely be defiant of terrorist actions is to have faith in democracy and move to the center. Freedom of speech, freedom to critize, a policy of internal development not external reactions.
To think that the terrorists want the opposite of what you want. Be it you are for Kerry and the terrorists want Bush or you are for Bush and the terrorists are for Kerry verges on pure lunacy because it means that you are rationalizing their actions into the spectrum of your own understanding which you can not or at least should not try to do.
