Most? I would say that the creationists are a significant minority; I don't believe that they're a majority, at least not yet.
About 40% believe it, but the opinion of the general population isn't relevent when it comes to scientific matters--it's the opinion of the relevent parts of the scientific community that matter.
I should also note I love timwi's qualifier of "most" which isn't based on actual statistics and is just a blatant attempt at America bashing deeply hurts my feelings (see Wikipedia:No personal attacks).
