By a nearly 2 to 1 margin, Americans support the notion of striking a deal with Iran that restricts the nation’s nuclear program in exchange for loosening sanctions, a new Washington Post-ABC News poll finds.
But the survey — released hours before Tuesday’s negotiating deadline — also finds few Americans are hopeful that such an agreement will be effective. Nearly six in 10 say they are not confident that a deal will prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons, unchanged from 15 months ago, when the United States, France, Britain, Germany, China and Russia reached an interim agreement with Iran aimed at sealing a long-term deal.
Overall, the poll finds 59 percent support an agreement in which the United States and its negotiating partners lift major economic sanctions in exchange for restrictions on Iran’s nuclear program. Thirty-one percent oppose a deal.
Support outpaces opposition across nearly all demographic and political groups, with liberals (seven in 10) and Democrats (two-thirds) the most supportive. At least six in 10 independents and moderates also back the broad idea of a deal with Iran.

good question, I do not see how there is anything in it for us
Liberals that fall for this; don’t try to debate them. They know, or are too brainwashed to understand. Just try to scare them. Extremism might shock some thought into them, or not. Or just ignore them. Debating crazy people is pointless.
WaPo is trying to shape public opinion. The dirty rotten scoundrels.
By a nearly 2 to 1 margin, Americans support the notion of flying Unicorns shatting skittles on the people below
I talked to a liberal at work a few weeks ago. He honestly believed that Iran just wants nuclear energy. I told him he’s very naive if he believes that.
bullshit
It’s funny almost how you can look at the source and know already what they are going to say and how. It’s as if you could type their propaganda yourself just by looking at who is sending it out.
He’s probably hopeless. I think there are quite a lot who are. Ugh.
“It’s funny almost how you can look at the source and know already what they are going to say and how. It’s as if you could type their propaganda yourself just by looking at who is sending it out.”
So very true, but, the people who read it, take it as revealed truth. This is especially true in the South. Southerners who read the NYT or WaPo are convinced they are far superior to their benighted neighbors. How they fail to see it is confounding.
Goebbels would be proud.
It still amazes me that liberals decry nuclear energy in the US, but think it's fine for Iran.
Aren't we all inhabiting the same 'planet?'
WHat a stupid question, for one it has nothing at all to do with what the marxist is trying to do withIran. The question should be:
Should Obama give IRAN Nukes if they promise to be nice?
What they didn’t tell you: a) the polling software was probably designed by the folks that invented Soros vote ounting software, b) If you weren’t from Iran your answers didn’ count, c) if the software detected that your IP address was from a red state it didn’t record the responses, and d) poll was taken by a leftist MSM source solely that already had its final answers before the poll was taken.
Notice that you didn’t mention Germany. :(
"New York Tymes poll indicates 90% of people questioned support nuclear strike on Iran."
These are the idiots who vote for the likes of Obama.
Reasonable people might want more restrictions on Iran’s nuclear program in exchange for lifting sanctions. We don’t, however, even know what Obama’s deal is. From what we can tell, it’s going to make it easier for Iran to develop nukes. We won’t find out until it’s signed.
It’s high time the degenerate propagandists at the WP and NYT be cut down.
The WP especially has gone all in marxist since Amazon started bankrolling them.
Amazon is in for a rude awakening when the RIGHT gets control of the DOJ.
Think what the commies did to Microsoft over “Internet Explorer”
Bezos is cruising for a bruising.
This same liberal is just finishing college, and advised me to read Karl Marx. I advised him to listen to Rush Limbaugh.
