I keep listening to all these political analysts talk about the 3 million or so evangelicals who didn’t vote in the 2000 election that will turn out this year. Or about how 9% of the black vote went for Bush in 2000 were 18% are voting for Bush this year and how a minority of women voted for Bush in 2000 while the women vote is a toss up in 2004. How about the Veteran – Military vote? The way I figure it WI went to Gore by about 3000 votes in 2000. We have around 500,000 veterans in WI so if only 2% of them who did not vote in 2000 show up to vote in 2004 it is enough to change WI from blue to red or if 1% of the veterans who voted for Gore last election vote for Bush this election it would change WI from red to blue. I got to think the same scenario plays out in all the battle ground states. And I think we should all let them know that we count by wearing a POW-MIA logo to the polls on 11/2/04.

This is my first cotention of a re post. The POW emblem does not belong to any party and we have every right to send America a message that we remember our POW-MIAs.
