>>> Until 9/11/01, WE hadn't had an Islamic terrorist attack in the U.S. since 1993, and none before.

Agreed, but almost everyone believed we would see another 9/11 styled attack within a couple years right after it happened. It could happen at any moment, and I think Bush knows that. But the fact remains that after 9/11 most Americans believed we were vulnerable within the next couple of years and whatever else you say, it hasn't happened.

A good argument can be made that enhanced homeland security has had at least something to do with it.

At any rate, I don't think any rational thinkers truly believe there is a Democrat who, as president, would have done as good a job as Bush has. There are many who are confused about the importance of the Iraq War to the effort. But everyone knows that John Kerry would be just as weak as Clinton was on terror.
