(speaking in Nevada)
"I know a commander in chief when I see one and there's only one on the ballot," Franks said. "After September 11th, we were blessed to have a commander in chief who said enough is enough.
"There are two options: to fight them (terrorists) over there or to fight them over here. I'm an over-there-kind-of-guy," he said.
In an interview before the rally, Franks said he doesn't foresee an endless cycle of violence in Iraq, and he thinks violence will diminish after the Nov. 2 election.
"I believe they (insurgents) are influenced by what they see in our media ," he told The Associated Press. "They see if they blow something up it's front-page news ... (and) the presidential candidates will talk about it.
(yeah, thanks media, you are really helping to curb world terrorism)

I am in ROTC and one of the prof (a Major) said he worked with G. Franks for a little and said he is a good guy. I am also reading his book and he seems to be good guy too. I am glad he is on the correct side of the political fence.
