On my mind two

On my mind: two polls now show at least a blip of heightened voter attention to the terrorism issue, which has in turn buoyed at least the president and possibly (depending on which poll you look at) the GOP. Not much. But a bit. They won’t have another September 11th to whoop the drums over. The right now were likely at the high water mark. But where’s the response?

I don’t find this particularly worrisome in itself. But I do think what we see over the next week or so will be a telling test case for how the Democrats are able (and prepared) to wrestle with the White House over the basic definition of the election.
