the clueless Democratic Party thinks they're going to find votes in the center ... well, here's a poll that says they're out of touch with 59% of Americans, and probably a much higher percentage among Democrats, on a very critical issue ...

The latest NY Times / CBS poll shows the percentage of Americans calling for withdrawal from Iraq ASAP, even if stability is not achieved, has risen from 52% last month to 59% this month ... won't it be a sunny day when elected Democrats finally catch on to what we Americans want ???

here's the poll (sorry about the formatting - column 1 is: "Stay", column 2 is: "Leave ASAP", column 3 is: Unsure)

source: http://www.pollingreport.com/iraq.htm (scroll down to this poll)

"Should the United States troops stay in Iraq as long as it takes to make sure Iraq is a stable democracy, even if it takes a long time, or should U.S. troops leave Iraq as soon as possible, even if Iraq is not completely stable?"
(Note: Prior to 6/04: "Should the United States troops stay in Iraq as long as it takes to make sure Iraq is a stable democracy, even if that takes a long time, or should U.S. troops turn over control to Iraqis as soon as possible, even if Iraq is not completely stable?")

Stay as
Long as
It Takes Leave ASAP Unsure

ALL adults 36 59 5
