There is something to what club says, especially from the GOP (leakor) perspective.

But bringing 9/11 back to the news only hurt Bush. It might be neutral if he were running against Clinton, but he's not -- he's running against Kerry, and the commission report will surely have stuff in it about things the administration could have done before 9/11.
