Americans Oppose Closing Gitmo, Moving Prisoners to U.S.
Support is 8% among Republicans, 28% among independents, and 50% among Democrats

PRINCETON,
NJ -- Americans remain opposed to closing the Guantanamo Bay prison in
Cuba and moving some of the terrorist suspects being held there to U.S.
prisons: 30% favor such actions, while 64% do not. These attitudes
could present a significant roadblock for President Obama at a time
when he seeks congressional approval to move terrorist suspects from
Guantanamo to a converted state prison in northwestern Illinois.
