More Americans than ever believe the war in Afghanistan is going badly
for the United States, a new CBS News poll finds.

Sixty-nine percent now say things are going badly for the U.S. in
Afghanistan, a sharp increase from the 53 percent who said so in
September. Just 23 percent say things are going well, down 12 points
from September.

The findings reflect the most negative assessment of the war ever
measured in CBS News polls.

Obama may take advantage of this by pulling out and give them a stern warning while wagging his finger.

Maybe some time in the next few months he'll interrupt his jetsetting
around the world and bowing before foreigners and decide what to do.

As opposed to sinking even deeper into a quagmire?
