Do you think...

I don't know if anybody asked the question somewhere. But do you think, they gonna "find" Bin Laden, before the elections. Means they know where he is or already have him in custody and are only waiting for the best moment, to use his capture politically. And, if so, would it have a big impact on the elections?

Or does it work the other way? With bin Laden out of the way, doesn't that greatly reduce the argument that we need Bush because of the terrorists?

Oh, Bin Laden and company ain't the only terrorists out there; believe me. If he WAS found, it would be a case of "see what great work the Bush boys can do, don't you want more of the same?"

Hrm...now that's a thought. Man, if they even pulled a stunt like that...

There've been terrorists around for decades, but those with the means and the resources to put the hurt on the US are not so numerous. Personally, I wonder if the administration realized what a PITA it was going to be to find bin Laden and went after Iraq to prove that they were accomplishing something.
