Some of these folks, especially the E8/E9's and senior officers no doubt remember what the last Democrat President did to them.

If history repeats itself, watch for the absentee ballot debacle by our active duty armed forces, they were nit picked for postage, postmark, phony deadlines and local district qualifications.. and every attempt to "disqualify them" was attempted.

BUT ACORN is a community group with the best intentions,....... >:(

This election will be something to watch.

I lived the Clinton years.  Read "Dereliction of Duty"  by Lt. Col. "Buzz" Patterson (Ret.)   He was a military aid to Clinton.  Scary...very scary.  And B-HO with be 10 times worse.

Let's see..

- No military uniforms in the White house (Hilary)

- Staffers didn't know that all military officers had college degrees...imagine when they found out what the enlisted numbers were

- Stranded thousands of troops in the Gulf from their scheduled rotation home.  Bill up and decided to go to China on short notice and commandeered a good chunk of Air Force airlift to get him, Hillary and Chelsey there.  I was one of many who were stuck in the sandbox for nearly a month longer and found out two days before we were scheduled to leave.

And the really awesome one...

- Bill blew off nailing Osama Bin laden, with jets loaded and running and on-site intelligence of his location...TWICE!

...just to name a few.

I recently watched a report by CNN (the only U.S. news I get in Peru) about expats in Isreal. over 76% are voting for McCain.. If the rest of the folks living outside the States think the same way (I do, I do!!) then we will have a LOT of absontee ballots in our favor. we can only hope...

Let's see how many of those get lost, and how many are negated by illegals voting here  :-[
