Interesting. I hadn't considered that angle on Bush declaring martial law. The water cooler politics scuttlebutt I've been hearing has generally been of the "if a Democrat wins in November, expect Martial Law before January" kind, based on the expectation that around election day Bush will suddenly realize that all the imperial power he's been grabbing for the President will stand a good chance of being handed over to a Democrat, and of course the only things he can imagine a Democratic president doing with it will be the kind of things he's been using it for, squared, only aimed at Republicans.
