44 Percent of Americans sour on U.N.
2004-04-28
Quagmire for Kofi?

Just 38 percent of likely voters have a favorable opinion of the U.N., while 44 percent have an unfavorable view, according to a poll conducted by Rasmussen Reports.

Feelings about the U.N. are considerably more negative from a year ago. Leading up to the Iraq war, 48 percent of Americans had a favorable opinion of the body, with just 31 percent holding an unfavorable view.

Those describing themselves as liberal voters had the highest opinion of the U.N., with 60 percent giving the agency thumbs-up. Just 20 percent of conservatives had a positive view, while nearly two-thirds, 62 percent, frowned on the global body.

Two-thirds of those who say they’ll vote for President Bush in November have a negative impression of the U.N., whereas 59 percent of Kerry supporters view it positively.

If the Oil-for-Stuff controversy goes badly, the UN may have approval ratings that will improve the esteem of former-Gov Davis.
