Richie, thnaks for that post as I think it can help answer McGrath's question above.

Kevin, if I were to go into the county seat of Lancaster, a town of about 50,000 and located only 35 miles from a major city and the state capital of Columbus, and ask, "Should we?" the answer would be in at least 6 out of 10 cases exactly what Richie posted. Most of those people would add a few other things as well such as, "I hate to see it but I think we have to do something," and "I just hope our people do it quickly because I have a [insert friend/cousin/son/daughter/niece/nephew/etc] who's been activated and I can only pray they come home safe," or words to that effect.   

In the other 4 cases, you'll get three who are against it to varying degrees for a variety of reasons and one who wants to "nuke the fuckin' towelheads."

That's what I'd find I can just about guarantee.   Now if I were in some liberal area of Columbus, perhaps the numbers would drop to 4 or 5 out of 10 for going to war but still above 50% in a random "man on the street" sample. Now if you're at a peace demo, well.........But to be quite truthful, my scenario here is just about how the numbers would play out.
