Another "Never Mind"

With the economy not providing much in the way of likely campaign issues for the Democrats next year, what about the War on Terrorism?

For example, former Vice President Al Gore accused President Bush on Sunday of failing to make the country safer after the Sept. 11 attacks and using the war against terrorism as a pretext to consolidate power. Is any of that sticking? Well, there's a new poll out:

Newsweek Poll
conducted by Princeton Survey Research Associates.
Nov. 6-7, 2003. N=1,002 adults nationwide.
MoE ± 3.


". . . do you approve or disapprove of the way Bush is handling policies to prevent and minimize terrorism at home?"
