The Trust Level with Bush and Iraq is Dropping a Tad Low
From Editor & Publisher:
A new Washington Post-ABC News polls shows that an overwhelming majority of adult Americans believe fighting between Sunni and Shiite Muslims will lead to civil war in Iraq. Confirming a finding in a Gallup survey last week, more than half say the U.S. should begin withdrawing its forces from that country.I was also reading that Bush's support in deeply Southern-identified states (the ones where the citizens perhaps cannot spell their state except as an abbreviation?) has dropped very low so that even in red only-locations, his unfavorable ratings on terrorism and Iraq are running higher than the favorables.
More eight in 10 Democrats and political independents--and seven in 10 Republicans--believe civil war was likely.
Slightly more than half--52%--of those surveyed said the United States should begin withdrawing forces. One in six favors immediate withdrawal of all troops.
The poll found that 56% say the U.S. is not making significant progress toward restoring civil order in Iraq--a major surge in pessimism since December.
Not cool, Zeus!
