Perhaps this was a longshot of a comment, but I recall the townies in 2008 referring to Obama as "Barak They'll O-Bomb-Us" which was a rather unclever way of saying if we put a democrat in office we're going to look weak and lose the war. I also recall "Al Qaida is hoping Obama wins the election"
It goes back to the whole "Do you really think 3rd rate dictators would laugh at us and burn our flags if Ronald Reagan were president?" style campaigns.
Well they did stop it when he took office, but that's a whole 'nother conspiracy.
