Bad news for the Democrats – American success has left Americans feeling more confident about the war in Iraq.

Whether because of the news from Iraq, or the messages from the White House, Americans are less pessimistic than they were about the future prospects in Iraq. The percentage of those who believe that things are getting better for U.S. troops has increased from 13 percent in March and 20 percent in August to 25 percent now.

Those who believe things are getting worse have fallen from 55 percent in January and 51 percent in March to only 32 percent in this new Harris Poll.

Notice they just can't bring themselves to acknowledge the reality of success in the opening paragraph.

No doubt we will hear new choruses of “We’re Losing – Surrender Now!” from the Democrats. After all, undermining the troops and the war effort are their best hope of electoral victory next year.
