Not sure what to make of this: Poll shows that Democrats prefer a candidate who compromises

5. Who is "they"? It is Democratic voters who hold Democratic candidates to that "higher standard"

while republican voters hold their candidates to the "lower" (anti-compromise) standard.

Independents prefer that candidates of both parties be willing to compromise. At least this poll does not show that independents have different standards for the two parties.
