As to the support of people, a recent poll suggests the majority of Americans support it too: <a href="http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2009/10/27/cnn-poll-6-in-10-back-cap-and-trade/" rel="nofollow">6 in 10 back ‘cap-and-trade’</a> Whether it would pass before Copenhagen is another question entirely.

That's sipmly not true. It is a horribly flawed piece of legislation that will permanently depress the US economy. A majority of Americans do not support it, and those who want to let their members of Congress know can visit http://tiny.cc/FXGVq.
