Unless the attack was something on the order of a nuke on Washington D.C.,
I cant imagine a good reason for delaying the election. Only a delay for
logistical reasons would be valid IMO.

But back to Bush-- if a nuke is detonated in D.C., I would have no problem
with Marshall Law until things were set right.

Ummm, I take it that you arent going to answer the question...

Im confused. It seems that Johns answer was very clear from the snipped
quotes above.

Its clear? Did he mean Marshal Law the comic? Martial law? Im so
confused... ;-)

1. A delay for logistical reasons would be valid. Expanding on Johns
point, I would suggest that something such as Daves hypothetical about a
power outage that shut down voting in certain regions would require a delay.
Anything more than a few days would, however, be unacceptable.

I think Dave!s scenario implies a longer term than a few days, otherwise
there isnt a lot of point to the question. Basically John is restating the
question into one that allows him a more palatable answer. The answers he gives
in themselves are perfectly valid for the scenarios he spins, but I think they
carefully avoid the real meat of the question.
