Disrupting Elections?

The lastest intelligence from Homeland Security indicates that:

A plot to carry out a large-scale terror attack against the United States in the near future is being directed by Osama bin Laden and other top al Qaeda members, senior intelligence officials said Thursday.

………

The planned attack is "an effort to disrupt the democratic process" before November's elections, Ridge said.

One possible goal is to disrupt elections in a “battleground” state. If the courts don't allow a rerun of the election or if they do and the new result is different, the losing party will be convinced the election was stolen. A President whose every move is opposed by soreheads is much more useful than even a standard liberal who clearly won.

Update: The controversy is already starting.
