via Susie Madrak, this could be seen as a refutation of my previous post, namely that the US leadership doesn't pay a political price for war:
MACKINAC ISLAND – The war in Iraq has become so unpopular that it could cost Republicans control of Congress, statehouses and governor races around the country, national pollster John Zogby said Friday.
He said 70% of voters believe the U.S. is headed in the wrongdirection, adding, “I have never seen a number like that since I'vebeen polling.”
I'm always happy to be proven wrong, if it means trouble for Republicans.
Some more thoughts after the jump.
