According to Rasmussen Polling, veterans support John McCain more than Barack Obama. According to Rasmussen:

Voters who have served in the U.S. military favor John McCain over Barack Obama by a 56% to 37% margin.

You can add this veteran’s name to the list, too.

This poll was taken before Barack Obama slighted the wounded troops in Germany when he decided to cancel his visit to the military hospital there. It appears when he could not take his campaign folks and cameras with him, he decided to go to the gym instead.

I imagine the margin will increase after more and more veterans see that John McCain puts his country first, and McCain’s views don’t change with the wind direction.

Last night on MSNBC’s Countdown, Keith Olbermann spent the first 30 minutes of his show trying save Obama from this embarrassment. Of course, Olbermann is afraid to invite anyone on his show that might disagree with his opinion, so for 30 minutes or so, he and Rachel Maddow tried to help Obama in his time of need, taking time to cite left-leaning veterans’ groups to bolster their argument. Please Keith-go back to sports. You could clean up if you devoted an hour each night to sports.

The left has to be concerned. Obama is not running away with this election in a time where the current Republican President’s approval ratings are at an all-time low. One poll showed McCain leading Obama. Other polls show Obama ahead by an average of five points.

In another Rasmussen poll:

While Barack Obama has touted his travel to Afghanistan and Iraq as a “fact-finding” trip, 63% of Americans do not believe it makes the Democratic candidate any more qualified to be president.

I agree with these poll results. Obama lacks the experience to be a leader of our nation, and most people are starting to see this.

Best of all, the McCain campaign released a video called, “Troops” showing Obama’s lack of support for our troops. Enjoy!
