I see you've broken out your yellow dog again for this.
I have to admit I couldn't quite believe this when I read it this morning. If not in November, when does it become safe? How are you ever going to have an election if someone doesn't fix - and advertise - a date for it to happen on, and once you've done that, whenever it is, what's to stop someone reacting to that? And if you still haven't had an election by January, who's then President? Because the incumbent is just as unelected as the other guy.
It's just wrong, even as a contingency plan for something that might never happen, on so many levels. Of course, this is the same crowd that wanted to shut down the whole of central London for several days so that the President could visit the Queen.
