Reply #20: I think most people expected the verdict, etc. and won't affect their vote!

What I was worried about was a real "curveball" (and not Chalabi's minions by the way), where they'd also go drag out a live Bin Laden (or a dead one) and claim that they got him by Saddam giving out his whereabouts (you know that he wouldn't but if they announced that this close to the election, they would be figuring that we'd have a hard time disproving it this close to the election).

That might have stirred up the "stupidity" vote for them!

Sounds like they aren't going that route, so they'll have to rely on Diebold to try and keep congress now!
