New NBC Poll Shows Solid Majority Opposes Warrantless Wiretaps

According to Chris Matthews, warrantless wiretapping of U.S. citizens is “a winning issue politically” for President Bush.

A new poll from NBC and the Wall Street Journal further undermines Matthew’s argument:

That’s a pretty big margin in favor of the President following the law. How long will the media keep repeating the “conventional wisdom” that warrantless wiretapping of U.S. citizens is a good issue for President Bush when most polls show the opposite?
