36. Odd - Russert asked it last night and they all said yes.
Is this poll is just another indicator that the candidates are out of sync with the people.

Perhaps that's why Congress and the POTUS both have approval numbers that are at historic lows.

Could it be that Congress nor the political parties nor Bush cares what the people think and want? As examples many of us want the Iraq war ended now, we wanted Bush/Cheney impeached and held accountable under oath, and we do not want a war fought with Iran. Yet our leaders seem intent on marching us towards another war.

Perhaps manipulative e-voting machines have made citizens obsolete commodities.
