Democrats often have problems with voter apathy and lackluster levels of enthusiasm, but nothing compared to this!
According to a new NYTimes/CBS poll, 71% of Republicans would like to see someone new enter the Republican presidential race, and only 23% are satisfied with the current crop of candidates.
The numbers for enthusiasm are even more wild.
When looking at these numbers, it leads me to question whether or not the Republican nominee is even in the race yet. If he or she is, the enthusiasm gap between Republicans and Democrats in 2012 is likely to be astonishing.
Recent polling shows that President Obama's approval rating among Democratic voters may be as high as 80%.
