War on Terror Update
Confidence in War on Terror Falls to Lowest Level Since June 2008
Wednesday, April 29, 2009
Just 42% of likely voters now believe the United States and its allies are winning the War on Terror, according to the latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey.

That’s down from 50% two weeks ago, down from 62% in early February,and is the lowest level of confidence since June 30, 2008.

Twenty-eight percent (28%) now say the terrorists are winning. That’s the highest number offering that pessimistic assessment since October 2007.

Just over a third (34%) say the situation in Iraq will get better in the next six months, also the lowest level of confidence since last June. Twenty-seven percent (27%) say the situation will get worse.

Voters are evenly divided when it comes to the nation’s safety. While 41% say the America is safer today than it was before the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, 39% disagree. That’s the closest those percentages have been since last August. Two weeks ago, voters believed America was safer by a 52% to 30% margin.

One aspect that remains fairly constant is how voters rate President Obama’s handling of the situation in Iraq. Forty-three percent (43%) give the president good or excellent ratings, while 22% say he is doing a poor job. Since he was inaugurated, the number of voters who say he has done a good or excellent job has ranged from 42% to 46%, while the number who says poor has ranged from 17% to 22%.

In the long-term, just 32% say the U.S. mission in Iraq will be judged as a success while 39% say it will be deemed a failure.

A separate survey released over the weekend found that 58% of voters oppose any further investigating into how the Bush administration treated terrorism suspects. Most voters also believe the Obama administration’s recent release of CIA memos about interrogation methods endangers the national security of the United States.
