70% of Americans want the 2012 campaign to end already:

Seventy percent of respondents can’t wait for the campaign to be over. Twenty percent for some reason can’t wait for it to start and just 4 percent are indifferent.

Interestingly, voters on both sides of the aisle share a similar distaste for the 2012 contest: 67 percent of Democrats and 66 percent of Republicans can’t wait for the campaign to end.

The same poll finds that 57% of Americans have already given “quite a lot” of thought to the upcoming election, and 72% are at least somewhat enthusiastic about voting in next year’s election.

Remember how right-wing pundits thought that it was great that the 3,400 GOP debates were televised and the people would get a warm & fuzzy feel for their buffoonery? Why are they so right all the time?

Americans are voting with their remotes — and thus far they love the presidential debates.

Little wonder. The debates have given us an unprecedented look at the candidates and their ability to defend their policies and records.

Americans do love the debates but only the same way they “love” the Kardashians.
