God, I certainly hope not but look for something dramatic a day or two before Nov. 2nd.

1. No, it would be seen as a criminal action to kill people to stay in power

Thousands die just so the idiot in chief can stay in power. Savage Weiner says that it will happen and Bush will win. I doubt it. I think they know it's over.

2. It will certainly give him a big bounce

Nobody ever lost an election by overestimating the bloodthirstiness of the American voters.

edit to clarify: I am referring to popularity ratings. I did not intend to imply a causal relationship between votes cast and which candidate takes office. The refusal to admit international observers to US polling places is not likely to increase the scant evidence for such a theory.
