Ok I finally got it working thanks for everyone's help! Here are the steps I
took:

1. Added a DHCP_Source workstation with IP 0.0.0.0
2. Created a DHCP_Destination workstation with IP 255.255.255.255
3. Added the DHCP_Source workstation into the AntiSpoofing group for
internal interface
   on the firewall workstation (make sure Local_Net allows broadcasts)
4. Created a rule which says:
   Any  DHCP_Destination        BOOTP, BOOTTP(port 68)  Accept  Log Long

It works!  Thanks again to everyone who helped.  

Does anyone see any security concerns with this setup?

So the DHCP server is on a DIFFERENT interface than the clients trying to
obtain
an IP address?!??

Yes, you are right - I just was not sure about the source when doing DHCP
resp.
BOOTP.
Change that to 0.0.0.0 for anti-spoofing.
