THE PEOPLE SPEAK – AT 9:21 A.M. ET:  Public support for the Iran nuclear deal is down to a stunning 21% in the respected Pew poll.  This, as Congress debates the deal.  Is anyone in Washington listening?  From Weekly Standard: 

A new Pew poll finds shrinking support among the American people for the nuclear deal with Iran. The poll found 49 percent are opposed to the deal, with 21 percent in support and 30 percent who say they don't know.

That's a 12-point drop in support for the deal from Pew's poll two months ago, which found 33 percent supported the deal and 45 percent oppose it. Here's more from Pew:

While the partisan divide over the nuclear agreement remains substantial, support for the deal has slipped across the board since July. Currently, 42% of Democrats approve of the agreement, while 29% disapprove and an identical percentage has no opinion. In July, 50% of Democrats approved, 27% disapproved and 22% had no opinion.

Republican support for the agreement, already low, has dropped even further (from 13% to 6%). Independents’ support for the agreement also has fallen (from 31% to 20%), although – as with Democrats – the share disapproving has held steady since July, at 47%.

COMMENT:  And the Democrats in Congress, whipped to believe in the greater glory of Barack, will be supporting the nuclear deal almost solidly.  Oh yes, some express their "reservations," a way of protecting themselves (they think) if the deal results in a train wreck, but support of our Supreme Leader seems to overcome any legitimate concerns.
