NBC/WSJ poll: Primary season takes ‘corrosive’ toll on GOP and its candidates

"As another round of voting takes place this week in the Republican presidential race – with 11 states holding Super Tuesday contests – a new national NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll shows that the combative and heavily scrutinized primary season so far has damaged the party and its candidates.

Four in 10 of all adults say the GOP nominating process has given them a less favorable impression of the Republican Party, versus just slightly more than one in 10 with a more favorable opinion.

Additionally, when asked to describe the GOP nominating battle in a word or phrase, nearly 70 percent of respondents – including six in 10 independents and even more than half of Republicans – answered with a negative comment.

Some examples of these negative comments from Republicans: "Unenthusiastic," "discouraged," "lesser of two evils," "painful," "disappointed," "poor choices," "concerned," "underwhelmed,” “uninspiring” and “depressed.”

here's to hoping the Anti-Mitt forces do well enough on Tuesday to ensure more months of entertainment and move the nation further in our direction.

Those Fav/Unfav numbers on Romney are beautiful.

There's no way they could be watching the same House and Senate antics the rest of us have been watching since the Teabaggers came to town.
