Terror paradox?

All this talk about the election being about terrorism and Iraq doesn't match up with the red-state/blue-state map in this respect: The places targeted by terrorists voted for Kerry, while the places that voted for Bush seem to have incurred the heaviest costs in terms of soldiers fighting and dying in Iraq. Just an early post-election theory worth pondering.
