Judgment Calls.

The article focuses on the position of several U.S. Democrats regarding the war. Senate Democrats voted in favor of giving President George W. Bush the authority to use force in October 2002, one month after the first anniversary of the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001. John Edwards, who was one of the senators who voted yes, calls that vote a mistake. A poll conducted by Opinion Research in 2007 showed that only 6% of Democrats favor the war compared to the 49% who favored Iraq invasion in a poll conducted in 2002.
