Military Times poll: Troops backing McCain

No surprise here. Fully 68% of  those polled support John McCain. These are Americans who are fighting for us every day and  they are overwhelmingly in the McCain camp. That says volumes about who John McCain is and what he means when he says "Country First". Our troops live "Country First" every day.

Military Times poll: Troops backing McCain:

"McCain, R-Ariz., handily defeated Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., 68 percent to 23 percent in a voluntary survey of 4,293 active-duty, National Guard and reserve subscribers and former subscribers to Army Times, Navy Times, Marine Corps Times and Air Force Times."

"John McCain went to war for this country, even though he had an admiral father who probably could have gotten him out of the service,” Army Sgt. 1st Class Derriel D. Collins said. “He stuck it out five years in a prisoner of war camp. If that ain’t fortitude, showing your willingness to go all the way, I don’t know what the credentials are."
