So...how, exactly, is the support for withdrawal distributed?

Let me be clear: I want our troops out of Iraq as much as any of you, and I'm pleased that two-thirds of the country agree with us. The worry I have, though, is, what if all of that support is concentrated in, say, California and New England to the point that support for withdrawal in other parts of the country dips under 50 percent, and thus in those areas our elected representatives have an electorally-justified (though not morally-justified) reason for being waffley and indecisive: they may actually need war supporters to be reelected. Remember, our motto here is to elect a Democrat that fits the district, not to support Democrats exemplar that could never be elected in, say, Montana or Virginia.

The question is....has anyone actually polled all the districts in the country? Do we actually know if a given wavering Dem has actual worries about being reelected?

Do we need to do polling of individual districts?
