Oh, please.  These are strange people indeed to be trading on
patriotism.  Nobody's saying that the state would be "better served 
by a non-vet", only that the state would be better served by *this*
non-vet.  This is certainly an amusing turn of events; Democrats have
to search long and hard to find an under-70 veteran among their ranks.
They have *one* and now they're a bunch of flag-wavers.  It's enough
to turn your stomach.
