LOS ANGELES (KNX 1070 NEWSRADIO) -- A poll out today says support for the Afghanistan war, and President Obama's handling of it, is up.
57 percent of Americans say fighting the war is the right thing to do, compared to 35 percent who say it isn't, according to the latest Quinnipiac survey. That's up 9 percentage points in three weeks.
Approval of President Obama's handling of the war is now evenly split -- at 45 percent yes and 45 percent no. That's a gain for him of seven percentage points since last month.
