Terrorism Tops Economy for Wisconsin Republicans
Police in New York City Wisconsin delegates to the Republican National Convention in New York say they did not need the city’s tight security or its Sept. 11 memorials to remind them the United States is a potential terrorist target. The issue was on their minds well before the start of the convention.

And the delegates say President Bush is the candidate most qualified to face the threat.
