The only thing the VFW and American Legion vets agree on is the fight against the jihadis.

Rudy would do a good job of that.

Remember, these vets span the political spectrum.

If push came to shove, I'd support Rudy too. Above all else we need somebody who will kill the jihadis until they tire of dying.

Right, exactly. It also depends on how the questions in the poll were worded. If the question read, 'Between Hillary and Rudy, who has your vote?'.. most vets would say Rudy. If the question read, 'Between Fred Thompson and Rudy, who would get your vote?'.. the poll would be a bit more mixed than the hillary poll.

Would I like to see Fred Thompson get the nomination? Absolutly. However, at this point in time, he does not have the money or the traction in his movement to beat Rudy in a primary. It's entirly possible that he will give Rudy one hell of a run for his money in 6 to 8 months.

If it came down to Rudy vs Hillary, the obvious choice would be Rudy... at that point I would be voting against Hillary- Similar to what the Democrats did in 2004.. many of them did not vote FOR Kerry, they voted AGAINST Bush. Hopefully it does not come down that that as I would love to see Thompson get it.
