Yes the civilian trials for terrorists is a mistake.
Prediction: This will hurt democratic Congressional candidates in 2010. If we assume that all the Rs are opposed, then each democratic candidate will be asked their position on moving the trials and venue. If they say they agree with Pres. Obama and Director Holder, then they will be taking an unpopular position. If they oppose the trials then they have to disagree with the President of their own party. Bad decision.

Good idea. Put the Dems on the horns of a PR dilemma. Drive up their negatives. That strikes me as a good solid tactic.
