Is Bush & Co beginning to regret holding the GOP convention in NYC?

[Kid_A]

Didn't they plan to hold it there soon after 9/11, when they thought they had a free ride for the next seven years? And didn't that whole mindset blow up in their faces? I wouldn't be surprised if they considered moving it, for security reasons only, of course.

3. or depress protestor turnout

Or, give a reason for an even MORE oppressive military/police presence on the streets of New York
(which will come in handy when a Repuke operative (s) posing as a protestor does something horrible to turn the whole country against anyone who doesn't agree with Bush.

I really don't think you can be cynical enough with this crew.

4. How would we be able to tell?

I have never seen people unable to admit a mistake like this collection of rabble.
