Exhibit A: The re-election of George W. Bush and his administration, in 2004.

Even then, the growing concensus (at least, among the inquiring and the informed) was that the Iraq War was founded on misinformation, and that the war was perhaps wrong. But an awful lot of people who re-elected Bush disregarded all that and continued to support the Bush administration and its war, while others who re-elected him thought along the lines of, "Well, I disagree with this war, but I continue to support our troops, and I believe Bush is the one who can get us out of this mess."
