Pot polls

~ Jason Schwartz
Mark Kleiman breaks down the latest polls of public sentiment regarding pot laws. Bottom line:

…I doubt that even the decrim question would have gotten that much support in any poll since the beginning of the second War on Drugs in 1979. This is clearly not an issue the Obama Administration intends to take up anytime soon, but when and if it does there seems to be some running room.
