>>However, the poll also revealed that less than half (47 percent) of likely voters are paying "very close" or "fairly close" attention to the 2004 presidential election right now. One-fourth of likely voters are paying "very close" attention while an additional 22 percent are paying "fairly close" attention.

Another 25 percent say they are paying "some" attention to the race while 17 percent admit they are only paying attention "just a little." The remaining 11 percent did not offer a comment about the 2004 presidential election.

The poll also found public perception that the country is moving in the right direction and that things are going well in the United States jumped 12 points to 65 percent. Only 53 percent of likely voters believed this in a previous poll taken in mid-November.<<

It's so true that more than half voters don't pay any attention this early in campaign. Close friend of mine, who's usually very engaged with current events, informed me recently that he will start paying some attention when the Dem's have chosen their nominee.
The last paragraph of that article re public's perception of country moving in right direction could change drastically if the layoffs & jobs outsourcing continue.
