Polled: War and Congress
Those pollsters at Elon U are at it again. From their latest release:
As President George W. Bush urges for an increase in troops in Iraq, a recent Elon University Poll shows that 57 percent of those surveyed disapprove of the push. The War in Iraq is the most important issue to 45 percent of those surveyed, a significant increase from less than a year ago when only 26 percent of respondents listed the war as the most important issue. The poll shows 64 percent of respondents in a five state area disapprove of Bush’s handling Iraq versus a 31 percent approval. In addition, the majority of respondents trust the Democrats in Congress to do a better job handling the situation in Iraq than Bush.
