Clintons plan to go after al Qaeda was drafted in response to the bombing of the cole. The plan was finished in November, before the election.
Instead of starting a war in Afghanistan and handing it over to a new president immediately, Clinton saved the plans and gave them to Bush.
Bush sat on them, determined that terrorism wasn't as big an issue as Clinton was making it out to be.

What was he going to do, launch a few cruise missles at them?
Maybe he was going to do another Somalia?
Perhaps he just didn't have the balls to do anything and wanted to pretend he did.
Clinton's own people said counter terrorism was NOT job 1 for Clinton, or ever job 10.
