I think that people are tired. They're tired of the same old kind of politics. People want a new tone to politics.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
People are tired of seeing politicians as all talk and no action.
I think people are tired of politicians trying to poke each other in the eye.
What people are tired of, the people who agree with me, what they're tired of is listening to that sound, the sound of the people who've given up.
People feel overloaded, that politics has become kind of a public utility: hot- and cold-running politics any time of the day or night.
As a matter of fact I don't like politics. I really don't. I think it's so jaded now and everybody has to follow the party line.
People are just trying to work their jobs, raise their families, discipline their kids, and have a good life... Politics has just become like bad weather. And they deserve clear skies.
I'm very concerned about the tone of politics in recent years. We've seen a decline in civility and bipartisanship, and a rapid increase in hostility between those who have differing opinions. I think this has led to the alienation of the public in governance, which jeopardizes democratic participation.
People are tired of simple things. They want to be challenged.
I don't think that people are disinterested or uninterested in politics. I think very often they are disengaged from the formal political process. To some extent they are suspicious or even despairing of formal politics as a means to give expression and effect to what they want.
I've always looked upon politics as a very boring thing. Politics never interested me as much as the people involved in it.
