It didn’t take Bush and the Republicans long to turn the airline-terror plot against Democrats.

“Defeatocrats,” one blared.

Cheney didn’t even wait for the arrests. The day before, he said Ned Lamont’s victory in Connecticut emboldened “al Qaeda types.”

James Webb, Virginia Senate candidate, said:

Wesley Clark said:

“Invading Iraq and diverting our attention away from Al Qaeda and Osama bin Laden is not being strong on national security.”

That’s the way you do it.
