We've heard it ad nauseum. The troops are happy to be in Iraq and don't support the Democratic plan for withdrawal. We have also heard how most of our military and most of our veterans are "gasp" Republicans!!

Deployed Troops Give to Obama Over McCain by 6 - 1 Margin
Open Secrets is reporting that troops overseas are giving to Barack Obama over John McCain at a rate of 6 - 1:
According to an analysis of campaign contributions by the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics, Democrat Barack Obama has received nearly six times as much money from troops deployed overseas at the time of their contributions than has Republican John McCain, and the fiercely anti-war Ron Paul, though he suspended his campaign for the Republican nomination months ago, has received more than four times McCain's haul.
