Looks like the Axis of Evil is falling in line with world opinion, which overwhelmingly favors Kerry.

Over the summer, University of Maryland researchers asked citizens of 35 countries how they would vote between Bush and Kerry. The result? 30 of the 35 voted for Kerry.
Kerry won all but one European country polled.
A Bush campaign official once said Kerry "looks French." Apparently, the French were impressed. They gave Kerry a 59-point lead. Only 5 percent of the French voted for Bush.
What about the Bush administration's closest ally, Britain? Not even close. The British favored Kerry by over 30 points.
The exception was Poland, which Bush carried by a narrow margin.
How about America's neighbors? Canadians went for Kerry by 45 points. Mexicans by 20.
In Asia, Kerry carried China, Japan and Indonesia. Only the Philippines, a former American colony fighting its own Muslim insurrection, went for Bush. In India and Thailand, the race was close. Swing countries?
