A new national poll from CNN shows that many Republicans might be warming up to the idea of a brokered convention — 53 percent said the nominee should be chosen by the primaries and caucuses, but 43 percent say chosing the party standard bearer at August’s Republican National Convetion in Tampa Bay, Florida. 

The numbers underline the enthusiasm issue within the Republican primary process, as GOPers have failed to coalesce around former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney while polling has shown their general disatisfaction with the field of candidates.
