Should Dems go into this election without mentioning 9/11?

Here is my concern. Although the entire nation is pissed at Bush, we Democrats have not gone into this primary season without mentioning 9/11. Now, I think we at this message board are "more" cogizant of the actions of Bush and how they have hurt us. However, the everyday American that is not on top of politics might buy into whole "Patriotism, 9/11" thing and Bush will say "blame the loss of jobs on 9/11. Blame the power outage on 9/11. Blame the deficit on 9/11." Do you see what I am saying? He will say that all of our problems are not a result of himself but a result of 9/11.

I think 9/11 caused some things, but I firmly feel that a majority of the problems in America are caused by Bush. I am not sure how to frame the message, but I just think that it should be mentioned so that it won't have that much of a power punch. Right now, there is pretty much a thought vaccumm in America and they don't really have a reason "how" to justify 9/11. We have not filled that hole and Bush will get the opportunity to later.
