Warriors vs. the War

Brian Doherty | February 5, 2008

Fresh assessment of which candidates active military service seem to prefer: the candidates on either side who opposed the Iraq war in the beginning, Ron Paul and Barack Obama. Via ABC News's political blog:

In the 4th quarter of 2007, individuals in the Army, Navy and Air Force made those branches of the armed services the No. 13, No. 18 and No. 21, contributing industries, respectively. War opponent Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, received the most from donors in the military, collecting at least $212,000 from them. Another war opponent, Sen. Barack Obama, D-Illinois, was second with about $94,000.
