Interesting morsel buried in new NBC-WSJ Poll...

I think this was cited by Tim Russert earlier this evening... according to the NBC-WSJ new poll results, 54% of American feel the war wasn't worth it... AND (here's the interesting part) of those 54%, 80% want Dems to control Congress.




In fact, the poll demonstrates how attitudes on Iraq in effect translate into voters’ ballot choices. A 54% majority of the electorate now says removing Saddam Hussein from power wasn’t worth the human and financial costs — the highest percentage in the Journal/NBC poll since the war began in March 2003. Among those voters, fully eight in 10 want Democrats to control Congress after the elections.

But among the 37% who say the war has been worthwhile, seven in 10 want Republicans in charge on Capitol Hill. Among all voters, 61% say they feel “less confident” the war will end successfully, while just 27% feel “more confident” about the outcome.
