RE:"It's an even bet that there is a draft next year, regardless of who is elected. And the current bills, I believe, go to age 34 (?)." I will take that bet. No draft. Then again, if Kerry wins, Ted should be happy to go in the service, no?

The twin bills, S89 and HR163, project legislation for the spring of 2005, and the draft could become operational as early as June 2005. ...
