Is Bush Politicizing Terrorism?
An evenly divided swing district in Colorado has many people that think so according to a NY Times article. These conclusions were made before Democrats began accusing Mr. Bush of doing exactly that. I tend to agree with that assertion. Americans seem to be wising up to politicians playing on their largest fears. So, politically, the 9/11 speech that included political comments yesterday might have been a poor move. And, since a recent poll found 57% of Americans think terrorists will find a way to attack no matter what the government does, it looks like politicizing terrorism may not be as effective this year as it had been in the past. The elections this year will be telling.
