It's already seen as a victory.

Exactly. That's why you will never see such a poll taken on conservative sites. We already know the truth because we get our news 'fair and balanced'.

If the U.S. removes Saddam Hussein from power but does not capture or kill him, would you consider the military action a victory for the U.S.? 34% -- Yes 62% -- No

See! It's already been posted on TIME and it has been twisted to say that it's not a victory without Saddam dead or captured! Notice the Oiginally question says "complete victory" and now they have removed it in their poll results.

So now, according to TIME and CNN, if we never find Saddam then this war was never a victory. What crock of left wing buffalo chips.

I guess that we lost WWII. Never did see a trace of Hitler's body (there is a photo of "dead" Hitler).

I saw a PBS documentary about the Russians who buried his remains. They were moved after a point and I think that they may reside under a parking lot now.

"Saddam and Osama are toast, whether or not they are dead."

For those who lost dear ones on 9/11, this begs the question: "Is this sufficient justice for Osama bin Laden?"

As an American who has had my land attacked, the answer for me is "No."

Media BS (Bullpen Spin) BUMP!

I suppose that if we had persuaded Saddam to leave voluntarily then we would have lost as well (since we would not have had him in custody or killed him).

The "hate America first crowd" at Time marches on...

I voted No, not yet. Let them get it out of their system. As long as they don't hurt each other or loot vital resources. I would also allow them their Badal (revenge) against those who were part of the regime.

That's a question that could be answered either way. The looting needs to be controlled by police and not by military. My answer would be yes but no. I don't know how much they use these polls in their program since I never watch CNN but you can tell by the questions given on some of these polls that they intend to mislead people to vote for the liberal answer. We need to add a 'biased media' bump list.

I agree with you. In these polls, I've frequently noticed that the way the question is presented I could answer both yes and no.
