So today's the day, right?
What time does Osama bin Laden's state of the union address start?

I have to chuckle a bit at this. How come when no tape appears, it's "Another Success in the Secret US Campaign to Silence al Qaeda"...i.e. a Republican Administration, pre-election "success" story? Yet, when one appeared at the 11th hour in '04...how come it wasn't considered a FAILURE!?!? LOL!
And...actually played to Bush's election favor.

Well seeing as Al Qaeda was late on the 9/11 anniversary tape, one can only assume that we'll see it in a few weeks after the election has been decided.
I do think the whole "national security" angle got Bush the election in '04, but I felt that the appearance of Osama was rather anti-climatic. I mean, was there anyone not expecting it?
