What Do They Know?

Much in the news today about the manipulation from the Obama campaign of blogs, polls, web pages, etc. The gist is that the campaign has teams of hit squads which flood online polls to give the impression of huge leads for the Messiah. You've seen it. Maybe you've even done some of it; logging on repeatedly to a poll site and casting vote after vote to get the desired impact.

You've seen it on conservative blogs. Someone posts some damning info on the Socialist Savior and the comments section is overwhelmed with input ridiculing or disclaiming the information, often in crude fashion.

What happens, however if we get some data from folks who have a heavy investment in America? How about Americans working in Israel who will be casting absentee votes? Who are they supporting? Is it within the margin of error?

And, what about the guys and gals in harm's way? What do the service members think? How does it break out by service, by rank, etc.? Is it close? Will their votes count?

Votes From the Spear Point

Somehow I think that these folks are real Americans, not seeking a government handout or "social and economic justice"...whatever that means.
