Question: Should the Kerry campaign (or moveon) question why it has taken
three years to try to get Osama? Or something to the effect that if he is captured now it IS ALREADY TOO LATE? Just as a preemptive measure... I am pretty sure they are going to bring him out now (another thread in DU quotes the Pakistanis saying that they have already infiltrated his organization and are ready to "pounce" on him. And it is getting close to "product launching" time.)

1. Bad move, think ahead to 2008.

If we're on record now questioning Osama not being caught, and Kerry wins and he is still not caught come 2008 we could be in a sticky situation.

Moveon might be able to do something like this, but the Kerry camp and the DNC should keep their hands clean.

2. You are right. This probably would work if we ARE SURE Osama is
packed in bubble wrap (or ice) ready to be delivered pretty soon.

3. Moveon would best spend their resources
"spoiling" the Oct. Surprise by hammering it home in the media *before* it happens. Worst case? We were wrong.
