Subject: RE: BS: Bush-Kerry: Beyond the Personal Attacks
The claim by "GUEST,realist" that only 10% of U.S. voters understand the issues is impossible to substantiate.

Here are some recent pole numbers.

Republicans who support the war to oust Saddam from power in Iraq:

            a) 85% support

            b) 15% oppose

Democrats who support the war to oust Saddam from power In Iraq:

            a) 30% support

            b) 70% oppose (!!!)

And what does Democrat Kerry say about Iraq? He supports the war and says he will send 30-40,000 more U.S. troops in as soon as he is elected.
