LINK: And then look at what Andrew Sullivan has to say about the Spanish elections. I hate to go all Cassandra on y'all, but I wonder if anyone else sees the potential upshot of the Madrid bombing: trying to throw an election to a soft-on-terror party by staging a major terrorist attack just before said election works, provided you can make the terror bad enough, and that other party has, say, expressed a desire to undo all or part of the tough-on-terror approach of those currently in power. Hint hint. If I were in DHS, I'd be panicking right about now.

This would, of course, be an "I told you so" I'd like to never have to say.
