Bin-Laden will call to vote for Kerry

In order to achieve the opposite effect.
People will think that voting for Kerry will be following BL's instructions, so they will change their vote or not vote at all.
Bin Laden needs * to win, and that's the most effective way to achieve it.

5. If he really does this then Kerry must respond immediately
and let Americans know that under his presidency, bin Laden will pay for his crimes in short order.

9. I wish it was so easy...

If American people were educated and rational about terrorism we wouldn't have the close race we have.

I do hope this to hurt * because it will underline his failure to capture BL and what a diversion iraq has been. But that's a rational analysis, and many/most people are not rational, especially when it comes to primordial feelings like fear.

6. I doubt it
americans are not so stupid as to believe this. What they will probably think is "Oh gee, how interesting that this is on four days before the election. *click*". If anything, this will hurt Bush, who is having a hell of a time showing that he has done anything in protecting the US in the last four years.

19. I agree, plenty of people would be suspicious.
Independents and moderates would probably not fall for this. It's not that hard to understand the use of reverse psychology. And it's important that the Kerry campaign get that message out in the event of such a broadcast from OBL/Al Aqaeda.

15. Remember Bush said he wasn't a concern if Bush had not dropped the Ball
then none of this would be a worry

24. Will the tape say 'I'm George W Bush and I approve of this message'?
So is Bush (Cheney/Condi) rushing back to Washington to protect America?

Watch this swing!

21. George's buddy Osama
bin Laden appears right on time to issue a new threat as George wraps himself up in the family of the 9/11 dead. Gosh, how fortunate for George.

I never believed the stories about Osama being a CIA agent...now I'm beginning to wonder.

Most Americans have become so enured to bin Laden's threats (how many have we had now?) that no one will care...or notice. The only ones who might be frightened away are the Bush voters.

23. I agree on that

A concret terrorist threat for election day could scare some * voters, but not Kerry voters.

25. From your subject line, I thought
that you meant that bin Laden would be manning the GOTV phone banks for Kerry.

26. LOL...

English is not my native language so sometimes I screw up.
On a related note, looks like I was essentially right... BL criticizing Bush but not Kerry.
