Support For Gov'. "Rescue" Drops

Pew Research, which last week found that 57% of Americans support government intervention to save the economy, finds this week that public support has dropped; only 45% support a "government plan to invest or commit billions to secure financial institutions." 38% say they're opposed; the rest don't know.  Independents are the least likely to support it (42%); Republicans are the most likely (49%)  Two thirds say they're "angry" about the plan, which independents being the angriest and Republicans being the least angry.

Note that Pew does not poll the term "bailout."
