Uh, I don't think so, Marc -The latest NYT-CBS poll found that while 2/3
of Americans do, indeed, support going to war in Iraq at some point, 59
percent support giving inspections more time.

That "growing shift", judging from the more recent polls, is towards
public support for the War, Tim.

And what is the currrent population of the Bay Area?  Four or five
million?  Getting out 2% of the population of the most liberal area in
the US for a protest on what has become the Great Liberal Issue of 2003
seems rather a feeble effort.
