Play from 0:00[0:00]" Talking with University of Virginia professor Larry zapatero about a new Yahoo! poll that shows. Voters much less enthusiastic for John McCain's candidacy and that a Barack Obama this poll is clearly indicating that. McCain seems to have an excitement deficit and the this is the product."

Play from 0:18[0:18]" Are no. All through the year editors that on major enthusiasm gap. Benefiting Democrats and hurting Republicans. It's not just McCain it's also hurting GOP candidates percent and it helps across the country. And mainly it's because many Republicans are disillusioned with the Bush Administration. And excited they've been in power forward. Eight years for president and up until 2006 for twelve. Years in the congress. -- and the old slogan it's time for change. A affects the level of enthusiasm. That the two parties demonstrate during a campaign."

Play from 0:56[0:56]" According to this poll it seems as though independence. Who. -- really both candidates are kind of counting on come November independents seem more disaffected than their regular party line now voters."

Play from 1:08[1:08]" Well you know that's always true of first of all their independence because they don't fully signed on to your party's agenda. But the second reason is because. By this point in the campaign. There's been a lot of negative coverage of bulk of the candidates. Lapse of controversies in gap. And the independents tend to be the first to get turned off. Some of them because they are aligned with the party and others because so frankly. Some of the Independent they'll keep up with politics and they tend to be disproportionately. Affected by the news media coverage of the story of the day."

Play from 1:42[1:42]" How much of that temperament in the mood of the voters right now. Would you attribute to the fact that this thing has gone on so darn long."

Play from 1:50[1:50]" But -- well. I've most Americans have now adjusted to the fact that. We have -- turtle presidential politics. Next race begins its day after the last election. But it doesn't have an affection people tire or other even people in the profession who loved politics tire of it's simply become a permanent campaign. It's a shame that it's probably unwise but there's not a lot we can do it."

Play from 2:17[2:17]" It doesn't show any sign of -- once the election takes place it just seems as though. This is something that's intensifying right."

Play from 2:24[2:24]" Well absolutely -- it just goes on and on and I can guarantee you are depending on which side wins in November by the end of November you already handles. Some candidates organizing fund raiser in reaching out to the early states like Iowa New Hampshire. "

Play from 2:42[2:42]" Say it isn't so please. You know I'm afraid it is true."
