AP - Men and women, whites and minorities - all are feeling a
war-weary pessimism about the country seldom shared by so many people.
Only 25% of those surveyed say things in the U.S. are going in the right
direction, according to an AP-Ipsos poll this month. That is about the
lowest level of satisfaction detected since the survey started in
December 2003. Rarely have longer-running polls found such a rate since
the even gloomier days of 1992 ahead of the first President Bush's
re-election loss to Democrat Bill Clinton.
The current glumness is widely blamed on public discontent with the war
in Iraq and with President Bush. It is striking for how widespread the
mood is among different groups of people.
Women and minorities are less content than men and whites, which has
been true for years. But all four groups are at or near record lows for
the AP-Ipsos poll, and at unusually low levels for older surveys, as
well.
