Texans growing uneasy over Iraq
http://www.dfw.com/mld/dfw/news/state/12680944.htm

AUSTIN _ Support for the war in Iraq is slipping in President Bush's home state, with only 28 percent of Texans saying the conflict is going well, poll results released Sunday show.

The Scripps Howard Texas Poll, which surveyed 1,000 randomly selected residents from Aug. 22 through Sept. 3, also shows that Texans are increasingly uneasy over the wider war on terrorism, with three out of four respondents saying another attack on the United Stated is at least somewhat likely during the next year.

"There is a lot of concern about how the war is going," said poll director Ty Meighan. "You can see it in our poll, just as you can see it in the polls that are coming out nationally."

Support among Texans for the Iraqi war has been relatively anemic for the past year, but the latest numbers are the lowest since the U.S.-led invasion began in March 2003.
