If you're talking about Republican politicians, I would agree. If you're talking about Republican voters, I strongly disagree. The reverence our current and former soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines have for MoH recipients is stronger than the distrust we have for the major parties. I don't see Republican politicians being able to spin war heroes into political hacks.
