Come again? It seems to me that this poll indicates that 36% of Democrats are seriously detached from reality, and that a majority of Democrats favor surrendering to the terrorists. That is a serious problem, a serious issue for the upcoming election, and if you want to call it "questioning patriotism" - then so be it, because it concerns me even more in this election than the abortion issue.
