oh by the way, speaking of poll numbers
" NBC-WSJ Poll: Bush support drops:
President’s ratings slip on economy, foreign policy, handling of war on terrorism.
72 PERCENT FAVOR EVIDENCE
Seventy-two percent believe Bush should show evidence of Iraq’s possession of weapons of mass destruction, compared with 22 percent who say he should not.
And by a margin of 48 percent to 24 percent, the poll indicates that Americans believe the al-Qaida terrorist network, responsible for Sept. 11 attacks, is more a threat to the country than Iraq.
On Wednesday, a senior administration official who has long insisted the White House doesn’t pay attention to polls took the unusual step of acknowledging the numbers are slipping, blaming a period of slow economic growth, NBC’s Campbell Brown reported. "

But then again it is a poll and nothing but numbers which are always questionable to say the least. But on the other hand, the President-select and his people have made many statements that they do not depend on polls, and yet always seem to throw numbers out when they reflect a positive light, as do almost everyone else.
it is not the nation as a whole I guess is what the point is.
This pratice of saying something over and over again in public until the point that people forget or refuse to question and just accept it as truth is a bit old. Nothing new either, it has been SOP for years now...
