I think in this last election fear was paramount- and what is worse, the fears were irrational. If people want to really worry about what will kill them, they should worry about heart attacks, stroke, and cancer- not terrorism. Odds are one of the big three will get you, and if not one of those, there are plenty of other major killers out there. It is rational to rank one's risks, and to prioritize based on risk. It is irrational to focus on that which is unlikely to affect you.

The fact that Kerry's propaganda didn't work, and was intended to work, makes me like Kerry all the more. Give me an ineffectual propagandist any old day- they are much less dangerous animals.
