Poll finds that 61% of New York residents and 56% of New York City residents oppose the proposed Ground Zero mosque

Only 33% of New York City residents support it. Another poll shows that nearly 70% of all Americans oppose the controversial plan to build the mosque just blocks away from the solemn site in lower Manhattan while just 29% favor the construction. Broken down by party affiliation, 54% of Democrats oppose the plans while 82% of Republicans disapprove. Meanwhile, 70% of independents said they are against the proposal.

Thanks for the input and the useful links. Unfortunately, I think that most Americans will soon forget about the mosque abomination at Ground Zero because we are essentially lazy. We Americans prefer to take the path of least resistance which usually means turning a blind eye to anything that bothers us instead of fighting against it.
