A New Iowa Poll

A new poll from Iowa shows that the war in Iraq is waning.

These are what responders see as the problems facing the new president.

The Economy--29%
Iraq war--28%
Health Care--18%
Terrorism--12%
Immigration--10%

With all the news about the ups and downs of the US economy and the "good news" surrounding the surge it is no wonder that the focus has changed. But the average worker in the US saw his/her wages rise by 3.4% and that is the same as last year. That is not good news, what with the surging prices for food and gas, they are no better off this year than last.

What the Dems need to do is find a way to tie the economy and the war and health care all together, this could diffuse any strides the Repubs are making with so-called "good news".

I doubt they will do this, but the idea is there for them to use.
