In the lowest display of confidence in the United States’ position in the war on terror since Rasmussen Reports began polling on the subject two years ago, just 31% of American adults say the U.S. and its allies are winning the War on Terror (see crosstabs). That’s a 10-point drop since our last poll taken in the days immediately following the fifth anniversary of 9/11.
For the first time since polling began, a plurality of respondents give the advantage to the terrorists—36% say they’re ahead in the war on terror. Twenty-two percent (22%) say neither side is winning.
During Election 2004, a majority of Americans consistently believed the U.S. was winning and fewer than 30% believed the terrorists had the advantage.
Today, most (54%) believe that the situation in Iraq will get worse over the next six months—a six-point increase since last month. Twenty-four percent (24%) say it will improve and 12% say it will stay the same.
This is the "ROCK" upon which Bush, Cheney & Rove have built their Church that worships fear, and fear itself.
Other polls now reflect another massive change, for instance, Gallup:
The public now trusts the Democrats more than the GOP across the board, including Bush's "ace in the hole" terrorism.
The change from 2004 is palpable.
