    McCain clearly. Unless it is staged by a an old crippled white man, the latent distrust will creep its ugly head.

    I voted McCain too becasue I think people will feel safer during such an event with him due to his experience.

    Obama.

    We're in a crisis now and people like Obama's cool leadership. They've already decided against Repulicans/conservatism. Nobody but the dead-enders wants to go back to where we were.

    Plus, an attack would just give Bush an opportunity to be on TV more and that's bad for McCain.

    I did not think of it that way. Very good points.

    LMFAO. "EGYPT" posts asking about the political impact of a terrorist attack.

    I'm sorry, no offense, but did you really want to get the attention of *every* counter-terrorism branch of the FBI, CIA, DOD, and homeland security in one thread? :)

    I'm sure a McCain operative is getting ready to pull some stunt..

    (to the overly sensitive, yes, I am kidding... although the blimp being a reference to mccain's age is 100% serious)

    :D If other people are free to say such things then I do not want to opress myself or deny myself the right to say them even if it might get me in trouble.

    I unfortunately fear our greatest threat for a terrorist attack these days is from within the ranks of our own homegrown fallout shelter dwellers getting whipped into a frenzy by the fear mongers.
