WASHINGTON — More Iraqis believe their country is headed in the right direction and fewer think it's going wrong than at any time since the U.S. invasion two years ago, according to a new poll.
The poll, by the International Republican Institute (IRI), due to be made public today, also found that nearly half of Iraqis believe that religion has a special role to play in government.
The survey of 1,967 Iraqis was conducted Feb. 27-March 5, after Iraq held its first free elections in half a century in January. According to the poll, 62% say the country is headed in the right direction and 23% say it is headed in the wrong direction. That is the widest spread recorded in seven polls by the group, says Stuart Krusell, IRI director of operations for Iraq. In September, 45% of Iraqis thought the country was headed in the wrong direction and 42% thought it was headed in the right direction. The IRI is a non-partisan, U.S. taxpayer-funded group that promotes democracy abroad.

USA Today - Go figure
As Always, have at it
The MSM is deeply saddened.
As are the rest of the planetary gloom & doomers.....
It must have killed USAToday to have to report this.
I couldn't get your link to open for me. Here's another link with the story:
http://www.usatoday.com/news/world/iraq/2005-03-15-iraq-poll_x.htm
I wonder where this story was located on the paper?
It's Bush's fault.
Curious. both the USA today link in red as well as the exerpt link worked when I just tried them once again.
Thanks for the add'l link.
Killed the USA Today? Imagine how the folks at DU are gonna take this news. ERs across the country should be alerted.
Who is sad about this? Democrats.
The sadder, the better.
There's still hope that things will go badly in North Korea and Iran.
We'll fix their collective wagons as well.
Then they'll really be down-in-the-dumps-on-suicide-watch saddened.
Shadenfreude.
