.

it doesn't matter who's in the military.

it doesn't matter that palin's family is in a less than desirable situation.

it doesn't matter that palin's a woman or that obama's black. or that palin does have less, although different, experience than obama. hell. palin and obama aren't even running against each other.

what do matter are the facts. the cold hard, unemotional, unbiased, often elusive facts.

so this is my call to arms. to everyone. seek the facts. seek the facts as if you have no opinion and let the facts, all the facts form your opinion. and remember, you can always change your mind... (at least until november 4th).

Thank you so much for this post. I know 2nd hour, at least, is having a difficult time overcoming the media glare and getting to the facts.

Facts or not- Palin's family and their military record are crucial... to the electorate.  There are a lot of people who can identify with having a son in the service.  These people will vote not on the issue but on the emotional connection.  How you connect to the electorate and the economy are two critical factors during the election.
