I don't think eigther side are particularly passionate. I don't think Republicans are that excited about Romney, and Democrats are not that excited for Obama.

Obama has been a bit of a damp squib, he's really done nothing to get us Democrats enthusiastic for a second term. I think he was trying to fire up the base with his support of gay marriage a few months ago, but most Democrats think it was pointless because he's not pledged to do anything to get same sex marriage legalized, so it really doesn't matter.

I hope and expect Obama will be re-elected, but if Romney wins i won't be devastated. He was a decent governor of Massachusettes, so i don't think he'll be a total disaster as President, certainly no where near as bad as Bush.
