the great undecided

Who are these undecided voters in the upcoming election?  The choice has been so clear for so long, how can anyone still not have made their choice?

I particularly wonder about the swing states.  Do these people not know how critical their votes are?

I am hoping that the debates on Wednesday may ratchet up the interest and get some blood flowing in what has been an otherwise pretty bloodless competition.  I guess there has been some bleeding around the gums from all the mealy-mouthed excuse making...

And what's with all the pundits assuming that people in New Hampshire will vote for Mitt Romney because he is from a neighboring state?  Don't they realize how long ago they started calling it "Taxachusetts"?  No love lost there.   I just saw John Sununu claiming that a recent poll in NH was "garbage" because it put Obama up by double digits.  Of course the base will hold their noses and vote against Obama, but politics is a thinking man's (and woman's) sport in New England, played on long-established fields with rules like "good fences make good neighbors".  This part of the country has never been a one-issue voting bloc, so Republicans might want to hedge their bets.
