"Asked whether "it was worth going to war in Iraq," 44 percent of those surveyed said yes and 54 percent said no, the first time that a majority of those polled said war in Iraq was not worth it. In late March, 56 percent of those in the CNN-USA Today poll said the Iraq war was worth it and 41 percent said it was not. "
I think increasing distrust or disgust or whatever emotion average voters have with Iraq, combined with a growing sense that the economic numbers are a lot of baloney (people recognize that replacing $26 an hour manufacturing jobs with $6 an hour Wal Mart jobs is not economic growth, it's economic contraction) are all trending in the right direction.
It's rapidly going exactly where Zogby said: It's Kerry's to lose.
But I'm old enough (and stupid enough) to have worked for Dukakis, about whom the kindest thing I can say is that none of my paychecks bounced.
Dear God, let us not peak too soon!
