Stacking the Deck.

No one who knows anything (such as B***'s campaign advisers) knows how voters will respond to a terrorist attack soon before the November election. So now there's this rightist attempt to steer the conventional wisdom toward the idea that the terrorists want a Kerry win. And if they succeed, then whether B*** has successfully protected us from attack will no longer be the issue. People will vote against Kerry because the terrorists want us to vote for him.

That's what Rove & Co. are trying to do. And if the Dems don't fight it hard with their own spin and attempt to steer the conventional wisdom (something they're admittedly not very good at), and there is a terrorist attack soon before the November election, well, Vancouver is beautiful and pretty close to my sister.
