More Poll Data

The latest Fox News poll data are out, based on interviews conducted April 8-9. No surprises; 81% support the military action in Iraq, and 68% strongly support it. The President’s approval rating is positive by a 71% to 20% margin. General satisfaction with the progress of the war and with our military is no surprise. One interesting result: when asked what country is “the best friend of the United States today,” 81% said the U.K. Canada was second at 3%. And 51% thought John Kerry’s call for “regime change” in the U.S. was “a sign of poor judgment during wartime,” compared with 32% who considered it “just a typical campaign statement.”
