Why is Hilary's (or the Republicans') belief that a terrorist attack will help Republicans politically bizarre? Do you think Bush would still be president, or that he'd have been able to do half of the awful things he's done as president without 9/11? For that matter, would Reagan have been elected without the Iranian hostage crisis? Do you actually believe that the American people have learned their lesson and, next time, will say "okay, let's be sensible and drastically reduce our consumption of oil from the Middle East and change our policies toward these countries?"
