Report: Troops In Iraq Like Obama
So who are the troops stationed in Iraq supporting in the presidential election back home? ABC News interviewed a bunch of them and found that some of them appear to like Barack Obama.
This is hardly a scientific survey, obviously, but more of the troops who spoke to ABC had nice things to say about Obama than about either Hillary or McCain. For some reason they seem to like the fact that Obama is promising to bring them home. As PFC Jeremy Slate put it, "That would be nice -- I'd like to be home, yeah."
Hillary, too, is promising to end the war, and one of the soldiers interviewed voiced support for her.
But as Will Bunch smartly notes, not a single troop interviewed even mentioned that dude who happens to be running as the GOP nominee -- i.e., John McCain.
Go figure.
