Did you see the conference the SWVFT had six months ago? Neither did anyone else outside the room. The media and the ads are making this visible.

Yeah. Though unlike this Kerry v. SBVFT debacle where there are hundreds of witnesses, not one person can corroborate that the POTUS served during 1972-1973 and was not in fact AWOL. In my uneducated opinion, AWOL is equated to draft dodging and cowardice.

Good thing you are not running. Not going to drill for a few months or being absent from your place of duty (allegedly) is wrong and stupid, but does not equal draft dodging and cowardice, IMHO. It is not like he ran away to England, Russia, or Canada, for example.
Frankly, pulque, the ads are not aimed at you. They are aimed at the undecided/leaning Independent voter, especially vets.
The real message is the ad that is out now, and the anticipated next one.
