WASHINGTON - Neither President Bush nor Democrat John Kerry has gained an advantage in the presidential race, despite millions of dollars spent on advertising, though Americans are growing concerned that violence in Iraq is increasing the threat of terrorism, an Associated Press poll found.

Asked whether the military action in Iraq has increased or decreased the threat of terrorism around the world, half in the poll, 49 percent, said it has increased the threat, while 28 percent said it has decreased the threat. The number of people who thought the Iraq situation increased the terrorism threat grew slightly from Monday through Wednesday as the poll was conducted.

The current poll found that 41 percent approve of Bush’s performance on foreign policy issues and 51 percent approve of his handling of the war on terrorism.

His standing with the public on those issues has dropped since January.

Count Amerilis Patillo, a 75-year-old Chicago Democrat, among those who disapprove of Bush.

“I don’t like what the little shrub is doing on Iraq,” she said. “If the Supreme Court doesn’t select Bush this time, then Kerry will get in.”
