Too bad for you the exit polls don't show that.

Even your own post alludes to the fact the Spanish public mainly didn't like being lied to by their government:

"Probably part of it" was that the defeated conservative government of Prime Minister Jose Maria Aznar — a key U.S. ally — initially held Basque separatists accountable and "didn't get what information did exist out to the public," Armitage said in an interview on Philadelphia radio station WPHT.

After initially pointing the finger at Basque separatists, the Spanish government has since said it is investigating a top suspect's possible links to the al-Qaida terrorist network.

In two other interviews, as well, Armitage referred to what he described as the former government's "mishandling" of the terror attack, the bloodiest in Spain's history with 201 people dead.
