Poll question: Which City Would They Nuke?
OK, say the bad guys (whoever!) Did go "Noo-kyoo-lar" on our collective asses. Which city would they hit? What do you think the outcome would be?

2. I picked San Francisco. Boston and NY
are also candidates. Seattle too. Any bastion of liberalism because the nukes will probably be dropped or allowed to be dropped by the bu$h reich.
It aint gonna be Tulsa, Dallas or SLC.

L.A. and San Fran are two distinct choices, and I think it could be either - or, but definately West Coast. I agree that the Bushites will probably be behind whatever happens, therefore I think to hit New York again would be a dead give away. Hit the West Coast, kill somebody different this time, to keep the sheeple guessing.

3. Boston, during the Democratic convention
We all know who's side the terrorists are on. Just look at the Anthrax mailer.

4. NYC...it's still the biggest target.

Plus, it'd show that, even though we'd been hit once, we still couldn't defend the same target.

5. New Orleans
If they do their homework, they know what a busy port it is. And there are some very strategic pipelines running through the area.

It's a lot of area to keep secure.

7. IMO...
It will be a smaller city in the midwest - something unexpected - that will show that they can reach anywhere. It will have more influence on the economy if they strike "Anywhereville".

8. Seattle
I am here and it would be just my luck---But they would take out Boeing, Microsoft, Nuclear Sub base, major port and the home of Starbucks.

9. Boston or NY-more bang for the buck
highest population densities in the country-and lots of financial institutions.
