Opinions from the street

Now that Saddam Hussein has been captured, what should the United States' next step in Iraq be?

Jarrad Kippen, 21, Salt Lake City:

"I think we shouldn't try to stay there and run the country for them. We should try to put one of their people in power. It costs way too much money for the U.S."

Frank Campero, 40, Salt Lake City:

"The work is done. The rest is to help the people (in Iraq). But that was the target."

---

Kathy Reigelsperger, 44, Park City:

"I think we need to stay a little longer. But I think it (now) will be quicker for the U.S. to get out. Some of the resistance will taper off."

---

Amy Wadsworth, 49, Salt Lake City:

"I think we need to pursue getting out of there as fast as we can, yet in a stable way. We need to turn power over to the Iraqi people as soon as possible."

Scott Winget, 23, Centerville:

"Kill Saddam. He caused problems for many people for many years, especially with the other President George Bush."

Eladio Lopez, 25, visiting Utah from Madrid, Spain:

"Well, troops are dying. I think now Saddam is gone, they should start thinking about leaving the country."
