WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A majority of the U.S. public doubts the United States will win the war in Iraq and believes the Bush administration deliberately misled Americans over Iraq's weapons capabilities, according to a USA Today/CNN/Gallup Poll.
The poll in Wednesday's USA Today also showed that despite the doubts, a majority believes it was right to send troops to topple Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein.
It was the first time that the poll found that more than half of Americans -- 51 percent -- believed the administration was deliberately misleading when it asserted that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction, USA Today said. NOTE: A link to the USA Today article.
