People can only live in fear, live in a heightened state of anxiety over their safety, for so long before they either stop believing it or emotionally burn out. I was really happy to hear Obama say in Iowa, "[I understand] that 9/11 is not a way to scare up votes but a challenge that should unite America and the world against the common threats of the 21st century." Hearing a politician not push the "you're all going to DIE" sound bite button was refreshing.
A Giuliani presidency would turn us into a culture permanently entrenched in irrational fear. Nothing good can possibly come of that.
