Americans Support Censure

Do you favor or oppose the United States Senate passing a resolution censuring President George W. Bush for authorizing wiretaps of Americans within the United States without obtaining court orders?

3/15/06 Favor Oppose Undecided

All Adults 46% 44% 10%
Voters 48% 43% 9%

Republicans (33%) 29% 57% 14%
Democrats (37%) 70% 26% 4%
Independents (30%) 42% 47% 11%

Based on 1,100 completed telephone interviews among a random sample of adults nationwide March 13-15, 2006. The theoretical margin of error is plus or minus 3 percentage points, 95% of the time.

Take a look at the 29% of Republicans who favor Censure. Also, in the same poll, 18% of Republicans favor impeachment. ARG poll. I haven't looked at the internals.

This pretty much blows up the "conventional wisdom" that Feingold is way out of the mainstream that has been undergirding the media stories on this issue.

  • heh well we knew it didnt we? Support will only grow as the mainstream media realizes how off they were.
