A Washington Post article about the possibility of al Qaeda attacks this summer contains an interesting line:

[...] al Qaeda operatives are pleased with the change in government resulting from the March 11 terrorist bombings in Spain and may want to affect elections in the United States and other countries.

This begs the question: which candidate do you think al Qaeda would like to see win the election?

More importantly, what kind of American would vote for the candidate that al Qaeda wants to win?
