A shifting military?

At least politically it seems that way. The LA Times reports on a survey done by the Military Times relative to the political party affiliation of servicemen. The survey shows a fairly significant drop in Republican affiliation between 2004 and 2006. In 2004 60% of the respondents considered themselves Republican, in 2006 that number was down to 46%. Further, only 35% of the respondents approved of Bush's management of the war.

Some, as usual, question the validity of the poll. But I think it's as valid as most polls.
