Some Interesting Polling Results

From the latest Washington Post ABC News poll:

Was the Iraq war worth fighting?
Yes- 33
No- 62

Do you support Obama's decision to withdraw all US forces from Iraq by the end of the year?
Yes- 78
No- 21

Do you think the federal government should pursue policies that try to reduce the gap between wealthy and less well-off Americans?
Yes- 60
No- 35

Obama comes off badly in the poll, because of economic anxiety, and the respondents were closely divided on whether he or the Republicans should be trusted to fix it. But if you move away from the immediate economic woes, the opinions expressed are left of center right down the line.
