The most recent data I can find that includes Iraq is a war on terror poll. This poll has 42% say we are winning, 25% - losing, and 26% think it is a draw.(http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/mood_of_america/war_on_terror_update)

Hence I can not find support for you claim!

But presumably you don't think it a bad thing that the military occupations continue when 70% of the people want them ended. (Including a lot of people who voted for Obama on a promise to bring the troops home.)
