It’s the Iraq War, stupid!
Chicago Tribune
Excerpt
It’s the Iraq War, stupid! That’s the take-away message to congressional candidates from a Gallup Poll released this morning. The largest percentage of surveyed voters–35 percent–said the most important issue to them would be where candidates stand on how the U.S. should proceed in Iraq.
The second-place issue was the amorphous “taking care of the concerns of people in your district.” This question is problemmatic since the Iraq War could be a “concern” of voters in a particular district. Also, there’s some overlap with another choice Gallup provided: “bringing jobs/federal money to your district.”
Illegal immigration came in fifth place
H.L.s Take
Most Politicians still haven’t figured this out. Maybe when Lieberman goes down they will start to get the message.
