The interesting thing is that practically any war will be popular as long as we win. If you look at the polls on the Iraq war, the vast majority of Americans were happy that we invaded Iraq even a couple of years into the war. Even after they knew that we didn't find any WMDs, the vast majority of Americans still thought it was good that we went into Iraq. The only reason the war has become unpopular is because the war is not going well.

I would pretty much say the same for Vietnam. If we would have gone in there and won the war, most Americans would say that it was a great idea.

I guess most Americans are very results oriented.
