New Ohio voting law - what impact?

I'd much rather see an improved system for military voters, particularly those who are deployed overseas. Take actual polling machines to where they're at instead of using absentee ballots. There was a systematic attempt to disenfranchise military votes in 2000 and I've no doubt it'll be tried again this year.

For McCain's sake, maybe we don't want the troops voting in big numbers this year. My friends in the military say there is a surprising number who support Obama... and this recent article tends to lend credibility to that.

I'd still rather see the military get better access than offering college doofuses a pizza and a sixpack of black label if they come down and vote.

Must be faulty polling/research.

I mean, how many military members eat arugula and espouse communism?

about the same number of journalists who hunt for their own food and have a picture of Reagan hanging over their mantle.

My picture of Reagan is tattooed on my lower back. So that everyone can see him as I pull away from them.

I also have him tattooed on the inside of my eyelid so I see him even when I'm sleeping. No pain, no gain.

So are you still planing on the cosmetic surgery? How many surgeries do they think it will take to give you Sean Hannity's mug?:)

silliness. if there is one more McCain voter than Obama voter, the military vote is a net positive for McCain, assuming neither of the candidates can surpass the 50% mark in the general election.

I assure you that the military vote will be more than 50% republican.
