A Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey found that 65% of Americans would like to see U.S. troops brought home from Iraq within a year. That's the highest total recorded in the tracking poll which has been conducted regularly since August of last year.
The 65% total is up six points from two weeks ago, but just a single point higher than the total from a month ago.
Twenty-six percent (26%) want the troops brought home immediately, up three points from the last survey.
