At last!
For the first time since 2001, the NEWSWEEK poll shows that more Americans trust the Democrats than the GOP on moral values and the war on terror.
[snip]
Democrats now outdistance Republicans on every single issue that could decide voters’ choices come Nov. 7. In addition to winning—for the first time in the NEWSWEEK poll—on the question of which party is more trusted to fight the war on terror (44 to 37 percent) and moral values (42 percent to 36 percent), the Democrats now inspire more trust than the GOP on handling Iraq (47 to 34); the economy (53 to 31); health care (57 to 24); federal spending and the deficit (53 to 29); gas and oil prices (56 to 23); and immigration (43 to 34).
Yes, I’m very sorry that indefinite arbitrary detention and torture don’t seem to count as “moral values” because they don’t involve sex, but at this point I’ll take what I can get.
And there’s more:
For the first time in the NEWSWEEK poll, a majority of Americans now believe the Bush administration knowingly misled the American people in building its case for war against Saddam Hussein: 58 percent vs. 36 percent who believe it didn’t.
Meanwhile, Bush’s job performance hit 33%, down 3 from August and the lowest it’s been in a Newsweek poll.
33% is still way too high, with their software…
maybe foley just the tip of the.. eh, iceberg?
