Skepticism rising over Karl's "terra plots"

Let's see: Election years 2004 and 2006, full of terror threats but non-election-year 2005, few terror threats. Hmmm...wonder if there is any correlation? Election years: lots of terror threats. Non-election-years: few terror threats. What to make of that?

[T]he Miami and New York cases are inspiring a new round of skepticism from some lawyers who are openly questioning whether the government, in its zeal to win the midterm electio stop terrorism, is forgetting an element central to any case: the actual intent to commit a crime.
