The more people learn about the Ground Zero mosque, the less they like it

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 85% of U.S. voters say they are now following news stories about the mosque planned near Ground Zero. That’s a 34-point jump from a month ago when only 51% said they were following the story.

The Ground Zero mosque: What's not to love?

We have a friend who’s a real estate developer. He always “runs the numbers” to see if a project makes sense. We’re pretty sure he’s never had to factor in any poll numbers.

Rasmussen reports the negative news for the Ground Zero mosque:

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 85% of U.S. voters say they are now following news stories about the mosque planned near Ground Zero. That’s a 34-point jump from a month ago when only 51% said they were following the story.

The new finding includes 58% who are following the story very closely, up from 22% in mid-July.

Now 62% oppose the building of a mosque near where the World Trade Center stood in Lower Manhattan, compared to 54% in the previous survey. Twenty-five percent (25%) favor allowing the mosque to go ahead, and 13% more are not sure.

Sixty-eight percent (68%) of the Political Class, however, favor building the mosque near Ground Zero. Seventy-seven percent (77%) of Mainstream voters are opposed.

Just one more issue on which the people differ from the political class. Just one more reason November is going to be fun.
