By a margin of 4-1 or higher, voters in three critical swing states, Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania, prefer a negotiated settlement to reduce Iran's nuclear program rather than military intervention, according to a Quinnipiac University Swing State Poll released today.....

Barack Obama remains deep in the hole, with negative job approval ratings: 41 - 55 percent in Florida; 42 - 54 percent in Ohio; 40 - 56 percent in Pennsylvania.

The media is pumping this for Team Valerie in order to create the illusion that voters support Obama.

Buried is this:
A nuclear deal with Iran should be subject to congressional approval, voters say 65 - 25 percent.

Actually, I believe treaties must be approved by 2/3 of the Senate, right? Or is the Constitution still in effect?

Obama has shown that he will not support our military—That he will squander gains paid for with the lives of brave, unselfish US service members.

For that reason alone, I don’t want him anywhere near our military.

But the terminally stupid voters in Pennsylvania will vote for Hillary next year.

Talking is fine, capitulation is not. No one says anyone has to shoot but that doen’t mean you don’t keep turning the economic screws.

America has lost its will and its way. All the low info crowd wants is to be entertained and cared for by government. This can only end badly for us.

I also prefer a negotiated settlement, if it is a good one. The problem is that Obama is proposing a negotiated agreement in which Iran will develop and use nuclear weapons, and the United States will pay Iran to do so. An honest poll would ask about approval given the content of the settlement and not the abstract idea of a settlement with the implication that the agreement is positive.

When was military intervention ever considered?

How did that get into the poll?

The simpletons in the media are no brighter than the simpleton Obama. The question for real adults is not to choose between talk or war. It is to choose between negotiating from a position of strength, or caving like a high school Freshman student counsel member dealing with Joseph Stalin.

but the terminally ill voters in PA will vote for hillary

There and everywhere else, only if the Republican candidate is an elitist-globalist-establishment waterboy such as Jeb. Ted Cruz has the ability to inspire individuals to realize their potential and the potential of the US to become the nation we once were.

I can see why military intervention wouldn’t be preferable. Who’d want to see our military set up to be sitting ducks, set up to lose before the fight even begins? This guy stabs our allies in the back while bending over to grab his ankles to scum, yelling “Death to America”. Is there any doubt that this man would send our armed forces to die like sheep to the slaughter?

This is weird. I heard one of Soetoro’s white boys on the news yesterday say that Soetoro’s approval rating is now 49% approve, 46% disapprove. I wonder what the truth is. With Soetoro’s new “fundamentally transformed” state controlled “media”, we don’t have a clue what the truth is about anything.

“Clever” poll questions can yield misleading poll results.

We need to label that propaganda as the B.S. it is.

Nuke them from orbit, it’s the only way to be sure.

Guess that puts me in the minority, the rest are fools.

Why are the only options war or talking? Why wasn't a question like, oh I don't know,

"Should we maintain sanctions on Iran?"

“When was military intervention ever considered?”
__________-

Big money interests in the US, but particularly in Europe are losing money through the sanctions as they have been dealing with Iran for decades. These talks are intended to get something done with Iran, because the sanctions are crumbling. We found in Cuba that if the US is the only nation living up to the sanctions, and every other nation does business with them, the sanction fails and the offending nation lives on.

With the sanctions crumbling, military may be the only way. I don’t know if the US is up for more war in the region.
