That's odd. In 1969, only a quarter of respondents selected the equivalent of "winning" in "whatever" ways were necessary. http://faculty.smu.edu/dsimon/Ch-Viet4tab.html Various other places online point to 1971-era polls with 50% of respondents saying the war was morally wrong/indefensible (though Google turns up precious little straight polling data, these are in line with everything I've read over the years). I can't imagine why public support climbed, in any way, over the intervening four years. Do you happen to know if this other Gallup/Harris data is online anywhere? > Marc
