1. McCain will sing "bomb bomb bomb Iran"
Obama will point to failed policies of bush-mccain-republicans and restate his policy on terror/Iraq/al-qeada

bush, if he's not too drunk, will make some cowboy statement about "huntin'em down" and then blame the dems

2. It is very convenient

According to BBC a few minutes ago, the attack was led by Islamic Jihad (not Al Qaeda). Not Al Qaeda means they can blame Iran. Now think about that - first some right wing newspaper just happens to send out a DVD with newspapers. And this all happens within weeks of the elections. They're about to steal another election and this is the warm up to the October surprise.

I smell a big fat rat. Is Cheney still overseas?

Let me add that no car with a bomb can penetrate any US Embassy in the world today. This story makes no sense.

sp., add

I started to get suspicious when he skipped overseas during the Repub convention. The man behind the curtain doesn't even need to answer to his own party.
