Alabamians overwhelmingly back McCain, but 45% want to withdraw U.S. troops from Iraq   Comments

Not a big surprise on either front in this poll, but still good to have numbers to put with the belief that more Alabamians believe that it is time to bring the troops home.

Alabamians overwhelmingly are dissatisfied with the way things are going in the country - 67.6 percent to 21.8 percent - but satisfied - 53.5 percent to 39.7 percent - with the ways things are going in Alabama, the polling data shows.

“There is a little disconnect going on here, for sure,” said Gerald Johnson, director of the poll. “We’re seeing almost half of respondents now saying the war was a mistake, but the one candidate out of the three who is saying the war is not a mistake is easily ahead.”

That’s not a disconnect, that’s LOGIC (at least in Alabama). We continually vote for candidates who run exactly opposite to what we say we believe…now try and explain to me why.
