Well it may seem "bureaucratic" to you & me, but I guarantee you it's not so bureaucratic to men the age of my brother-in-law who were actually in the Vietnam draft lottery.
Still, I think you're right that it won't make much difference. Just like Bill Clinton's womanizing was not new news to voters in 1996, the fact that George W. Bush used family connections to avoid going to Vietnam is not a revelation to us now. (The fact that we're only now seeing all the corroborative detail only points to the basic incompetence of the Gore campaign.)
