John Kerry talks consistently about how he would better be able to lead this nation and our military forces in times of conflict, often citing his experience as a combat veteran to buttress his claims.

Why is it then that a recent USA Today poll has 3 out of 4 members of the military voting for Bush?

In 2000 the ratio for Bush/Gore was only 2/1.

I think I can hear the voice of the common soldier loud and clear, Senator Kerry.

Wendy wondered out loud earlier today about whether or not the Democrats would once again seek to specifically discount as many absentee ballots as they could.

I remember the Democratic Mantra to let "Every Vote Count" and I shake my head with sadness.
