...be a little skeptical: "A new poll from the Pew Research Center shows more people are interested in the presidential campaign than were at similar times in 2003, 1999, 1995, 1991, and 1987. But not a lot more people. Twenty percent of those surveyed by Pew say they are following the race very closely; that number was 13 percent in 2003 and 16 percent in 1999."
I mean, this tells us that 80% of Americans AREN'T following it. That's an overwhelming majority.
