...there is nothing good here, indeed.

So what were the Spanish supposed to do? On the one hand we acknowledge
that
the real reason they voted out the incumbent is they were dissatisfied -
which, of course, is just democracy in action. On the other hand we
believe
the terrorists preceive the election results as a victory for their
side.

Seems like the only alternative left would be for the Spanish to vote
for
a
government they didn't want.


The government voted out had a substantial lead in the polls prior to the
attack.


As did Dean before the primaries. What's your point? We should appoint
politicians based on polls?
