clue how to manage a war. Says only a few supporters for Bush at his base, with even the officers leaning to Kerry. This is in Virginia. His vote was counted in Florida.

btw...he's scheduled for Iraq in April.

1. Hard to tell about officers...
They're not allowed to actually openly endorse candidates...for good reason, I guess. We don't need violent revolutions.

I would also feel better if the Secret Service didn't vote...simply because a Secret Service agent doesn't need to be biased.

2. Nah, Secret Service will break for Kerry.
He's the less likely to have people want to murder him. ;)

3. Wow - totally different than in 2000..
My hubby was in the Navy (Lt.) and I swear we were the only Gore supporters (well, there was one other I know of). It was painful, esp during the Fl. recount. I couldn't wait for him to get out.

5. Bush has no clue on all matters
but the war was, sadly, fatal and/or worse for far too many innocent folks.
