choda, I agree ... any day/week/month we can expect something, a bomb at a school, bridges, trains etc.
This might have done John Howard a big favor as far as keeping his job, or maybe not. Anything Mark Latham says about it will work against him IMO ... this is where our politics differs heavily from American politics - it would be considered bad taste to use this directly as a political point. Latham can talk all he likes, but Howard is out there doing it because its his job.
I'm not looking forward to 3 weeks of election commercials that's for sure
