If I were al Qaeda, I’d do it, and if I were Obama, I’d be hoping they would. Remember in 2004 when John Kerry kept claiming that Bush had "made us less safe"? It was hard to sell that claim when there hadn’t been an attack on American soil in three years. It would be much easier in the immediate aftermath of an attack, and Obama could rely on the media to help him sell it.
It could backfire, but from where I sit the odds look good for Obama. Things have changed in the last seven years. The media have changed as well.

I rather pray for an "October Surprise" for AQ. |

I voted with the majority in every case, and I just figured that Al Qaeda was so dumb that despite the first two, they would still attack the third. We have seen multiple times that Al Qaeda has two tricks: (1) attack and (2) threaten to attack. In the last election, we saw the "threaten to attack" which was supposed to swing us to Kerry. It didn’t work, but does that mean they wouldn’t try attacking if they are capable? No. So, I think they would prefer Obama, and will attack to try and get it, even though I think the real result would benefit McCain. |

I started to pen an answer to why al Qaeda would try to influence the US elections irrespective of who that would benefit, but was distracted.
In short, I think AQ is like the hard left. They are absolutely tone deaf due to their insular world of how non-supplicants view them, their words, their deeds. Start killing Sunnis and some Shias to show that Americans are evil? Attack Sarah Palin as an ill-equipped country imbecile? Attacks like that work in drawing rooms populated by like-minded hyper-partisans - not in the real world. |

Al Qaeda does not understand us well. They are apparently cowards and assume others are, as well. I would not be surprised if they were to try something stupid and counterproductive. They’ve done it time and again. |

Honestly, if al Qaeda were to use any strategy, I’d figure on them attacking after the election. It could either serve to discredit President Bush and McCain and make their strategies appear insufficient, or would show just how little Obama would do in the face of adversity. I just hope that our military intelligence is on top of it all and continues to keep our country safe, before or after the election. |
