Along the same lines, I'd like to see a similar poll done against Republican voters for comparison.
Since the sample for this KOS poll is just 'self-identified republicans', that doesn't give us any information about whether they're even (a) eligible to vote (e.g., of age, citizenship, etc), (b) registered to vote, or (c)--the kicker-- likely to vote.
It's an empirical question as to what the "average Joe (six-pack)" thinks and what the people who actually determine the outcome of an election cycle think.
