>>>Again, I believe you are seriously misreading the polls.<<<


You can keep saying that but how do you read these numbers as anything other than a desire by at least 71% of americans to have most troops out of Iraq by April 2008?

More than seven in 10 favor removing nearly all U.S. troops from Iraq by April


So 71% don't want the troops out tomorrow but does it really sound like they wanted another vote in support of Bush's unconditional war funding? I submit that YOU are seriously misreading the political landscape here if you think the democrat's voted as they did "to avoid public scorn". They probably lost another 2-3% instead and the only reason they didn't lose more is that they're already down to friends, family and loose acquaintances for political support.
