Haven't we already "been there, done that?"

It seems absolutely ludicrous to me that we would even consider postponing the election in the case of a terrorist attack--particularly if we announce such plans in advance.

This seems like a redux of the "transfer"--we announce the changes, adn then as a result, create a moving target which needs to be changed. This is just wrong--not to mention completely avoiding the precedents of wars past, where we managed to carry out elections, even under the spectres of two World Wars.
