<I say 90% of those soldiers, and Marines in harm's way want to just come home.>

I'm sure you are right. At least 90% of the foot soldiers do want to come home and their relatives want the same thing. A lot of them realize they were sent there to fight for a cause that was supported with lies made by junior. A lot of them (and their relatives) will vote for Kerry for this reason. A lot of them were made to stay for a longer period even after the amount of time junior told them they had to stay was up. This will swing more votes to kerry's side. Junior will probably win the vote from the military people who are not forced to go to Iraq but I doubt if he wins the vote from the people who were there.

When junior made those soldiers stay after they had fulfilled their side of the bargain he should have at the very least given them more money for having to risk their lives for his lies for a longer period. Some congressmen wanted for this to happen but we all know that junior wants to do away with all overtime anyway.
