What I am seeing on FR is so many freepers talking about how no one they know intends to vote for Obama or no signs for Obama are seen in their neighborhood, etc. Well Duh!
I live in Crook County, IL and I am sure that other conservatives living in large Democrat strongholds across the U.S. will tell a different story.
I made these replies to another freeper on a different thread:
“Every veteran I speak to (including myself) is firmly in the Romney/Ryan camp. We veterans may not be crazy about Romney but we understand the danger of a second Obama administration.”
I don’t know if you live in Boston or any of the other Democrat large cities in MA, but here in Democrat Chicago, Cook County, IL most vets vote reliably for Democrats. The Democrats count on that and ensure that happens by making certain IL Gov. Pat Quinn is always ‘seen’ talking about some ‘positive’ programs helping IL vets, (whether it is nothing more than vowing to do something for vets. The Democrats have put Democrat Tammy Duckworth, (double amputee Iraq War vet) up against a conservative Joe Walsh, who is losing in the polls.
Myself and many other IL conservatives that are veterans will vote for Romney, but we are outnumbered here in Cook County big time.

Quinn an attack dog as Duckworth talks up Obama and military
September 05, 2012|By Rick Pearson, Chicago Tribune reporter
As you know the media is carrying the water for Obama as it pertains to veterans. And most veterans either do not want to or do not have time, or do not care to seek alternative media truth about Obama and how he hates the military.
Sadly, current stories like these and dozens of others during this Obama campaign bombardment of propaganda published by the Chicago metro media are mostly what vets know about Obama”

Illinois eases professional licensing for military families
By Jason Keyser / Associated Press Posted on June 26, 2012
CHICAGO (AP) — Michelle Obama got a boost Tuesday from her home state of Illinois in her campaign to make it easier for military spouses to advance their own careers amid the frequent moves that come with life in a military family.

OK, that I understand. Is your initial sentence at 11 a typo, with the names transposed?
With regard to your post, I have wondered if both bases will be depressed. I think the international fiascoes and domestic depression is going to kill Hussein’s chances.
Didn’t democrats redraw the district boundaries in IL to favor themselves? That might have something to do with Walsh losing. I used to live in that district. Before Walsh there was Melissa Bean. She was voted out for voting for commie care. I got sick of IL Nazis and moved just north of the state line in WI.
