The draft, again
Rock The Vote is paying attention to the question of a possible draft. There are lots of links here, and an online petition. They're also linking to a blog called This is rumor control from 'an international team of foreign and military policy analysts'.
I posted Several links on the draft to this blog just a couple weeks ago, and once on the old WeBlog a few months ago. All along it's looked like the draft rumors were just that -- rumors. But the talks is snowballing. Is there more behind it?
