How enthused are Republicams about this primary? Let's compare the Republican turnout numbers till now from 2008 with 2012.
2008 2012
Iowa 119,118 122,255
New Hampshire 234,851 248,448
South Carolina 445,677 603,856
Florida 1,949,498 1,672,352
Nevada 44,324 32,894
Colorado 70,229 65,479
Missouri 588,720 251,868
Minnesota 62,828 47,801
So not to bad in Iowa and New Hampshire. Than a significant boost in South Carolina when Republicans suddenly and shortly fell for Gingrich's Stop-Romney effort. After that it's significantly downhill.

In fact it’s going down while the race is heating up.
