Bush's Guard Service

So the media has sensed Bush taking a lead and is running 24-7 coverage of Bush's Air National Guard Service. Sure, there's never been any proof that Bush went AWOL, but the accusations continue to fly. The military readily admits that their record keeping in the 1970's was poor at best. They did have better things to do, like fight a war. There is nothing uncommon about a few papers going missing from over thirty years ago.

Anyway, I'm not too worried about this. Gore tried to lay this rap on Bush four years ago and it didn't stick. I doubt it will stick this time. Plus, the Bush campaign, unlike the Kerry campaign, is not based around a few months thirty years ago. The reason the swift boat ads did damage is because Kerry's 'Nam service is seemingly his only credential to be President.
