Bad news for Republicans, though: based on a Quinnipiac poll released Thursday, American voters are far more likely to side with Democrats on this one.
Fifty-one percent of voters blame Bush for the violence, while only 27 percent blame Mr. Obama.
Sixty-one percent of voters say the 2003 war in Iraq was the wrong thing to do, and only 32 percent disagree. In a CBS News/New York Times poll released last week, 75 percent of Americans said the invasion of Iraq was not worth it, while only 18 percent said it was worth it.

In Quinnipiac's poll, 58 percent of voters say the president's decision to withdraw all of America's troops from Iraq in 2011 was the right thing to do, while only 37 percent say it was the wrong move. In the CBS News/New York Times poll last week, 50 percent said the U.S. should have withdrawn when it did, while 42 percent said it was a mistake.
According to Quinnipiac, voters also oppose sending ground troops back into Iraq by a 63 to 29 percent margin, including a majority of every party, age, and gender group.
