“ABSOLUTELY COUNTRY FIRST! COUNTRY FIRST!”

Well, 9 out of the 10 sub-groups, anyway.

I just got back from my polling place. My usually empty polling place. This is the first time that I've ever had to wait in a line to vote, let alone wait 45 minutes. I can tell you that 98% of the people in that line were going to cast their votes for 0bama.

No I can't read minds but I'm neither blind nor stupid either. A lot of young people and a lot of folks who appear to have never voted before. I've got a bad feeling about this if the rest of the country looks like my precinct.

"Marines 75 18"

I'm proud of my Marine Corps. We're always first. The Marine Corps birthday is coming up on November 10th. McCain/Palin, give us a birthday present!!

Thanks for those stats.

The percentages on the McCain side of your poll are approximately how much the Military will be self-downsized if Obama wins.

Tens of thousands of Military will leave at their first opportunity as they did when Clinton was elected.

Our soldiers do not want to serve a Marxist CIC with no Military experience who will push an anti-Constitutional agenda.
