If the United States were to be invaded as Ukraine was, by Russia just two weeks ago, 55% of Americans would stay and fight.
But those mostly would be Republicans and independents, because a majority of the Democrats responding to a new poll say they'd cut and run.
The Quinnipiac poll asked Americans if they were in the same position as Ukrainians now are, 55% responded with confirmation they'd stay and fight.
Thirty-eight percent said they'd run.
But among Republicans, the fighters totaled 68% of those responding while those who would run were only 25%. For independents, 57% said they'd stay to fight and 36% said they'd run.
But a full 52% of Democrats, a majority, said they'd run.
Male respondents by a 75%-19% margin said they'd fight, as would whites 57%-35% and Hispanics 61%-33%. Blacks would run, by a 59%-38% margin.
