JOHN MCCAIN, HORSERACE

Wisconsin Poll: Democrats No Better on Iraq Than Bush

Some eye-opening polls result from Strategic Vision in Wisconsin:

3. Do you approve or disapprove of President Bush's handling of the war in Iraq?

Approve 23%

Disapprove 68%

Undecided 9%

8. Do you approve or disapprove of the way Congress is performing its job?

Approve 15%

Disapprove 74%

Undecided 11%

To me, this was the real eye-opener:

7. Do you believe that Democrats in Congress have a better plan to resolve the Iraq War then President Bush?

Yes 18%

No 71%

Undecided 11%

Iraq, no longer a winning issue for Congressional Democrats. In that hawkish, hard-right state of Wisconsin. (And as one of my campaign sources points out, that question should soon shift to, "Do you believe that Democrats in Congress have a better plan to resolve the Iraq War than John McCain?")

Strategic Vision also asked presidential preference, and Wisconsin Republicans favor John McCain (45 percent) to Mike Huckabee (27 percent) and Ron Paul (7 percent).

Among Democrats, it's Obama 45 percent, Hillary 41 percent, and 14 percent undecided. Yet Hillary's not going to the state until Saturday!
