Reply #20: Could you list those polls?

I've not seen them unless they have been done recently because of the spotlight on the war right now. Here's a few facts from exit polls during the primaries...

Issues that were important in these states during the primaries:

OH: Jobs- 42%, Education-10%, National Sec. 3%, Iraq- 9%
WIS: Jobs- 41%, Healthcare-19%, Iraq- 17%, National Security- 3%
TX: Economy- 43%, Healthcare-26%, Iraq- 6%, Terrorism- 6%

If you look at any of the exit polls, you will find Jobs and Economy and healthcare trumping Iraq and Terrorism/National Security...especially away from the coasts.

Now that might be changing somewhat now, but what happens if things go well after June 30? Bush can already claim the UN is on-board. All the things that Kerry has wanted to do. They have the out ready in the sidelines. Do you really want to put all your eggs in one basket?
