The No. 1 issue
“Bad news for [Sens. Ted] Cruz and [Rand] Paul.”
Very significant
“Right up there with the economy for all voters and above it for Republicans.”
“A year is a long time, but if Americans are this scared next fall—watch out.”
“Bad news for Democrats—ISIS is their problem, happened on their watch, just as bin Laden was unfinished business left over from W.”
“Very significant in the GOP primary. Not so much in the general. HRC will have to avoid the topic in view of the failure of her five years as secretary.”
Somewhat significant
“Depends what happens between now and next November. If nothing else happens, it will fade as an issue.”
“America has the attention span of a gnat. This issue will dissipate until some other terrorist attack happens.”
