Down a bit in the results, 65% of those surveyed expect that US forces 'will' remain beyond two years. If this thing had the perception as 'unwinnable', I don't think the number would be as high. Closest thing to a no-confidence vote for Murtha/Dean/Pelosi you can get.... Did you see the internals on the poll?
