I don't believe there are that many "undecided" at this late stage. I believe the way the MSM polls ask the questions leave Bush supporters more likely as "undecided". At the most there is 2% undecided and of those it will split 1% each. The closer the MSM Polls are boost the ratings for the MSM. Bush take over 300 EC Votes.
Who cares about polls?
If, if, if.....
The Sky has fallen...Georgw Will said so...or is it a possibility..a guess..an opinion?
George Will wets his pants...I guess that means the election is 2 weeks away.
Will is no longer a "respected" columnist amongst Conservatives "outside the beltway". He also said undecideds break for the challenger. He is wrong when it comes to Presidential races. He has never been positive about Bush in this election, and he knows very little outside of baseball.

USN Dad Freeper to George Will: He's not TIED, he's AHEAD, so shutteth uppeth.
Since he's not tied, I suggest Will go back to kissing snuffelupagus' butt
George Will, ABC's idea of a conservative.
That would go against history if it did happen that way.
He is always so pompous and depressing. What did Sean Hannity say to those comments, anyway? Did he agree?
Yea, and they said Boston wouldn't win! BTW...what did Will say about the playoffs?
The election rule of thumb is that if an incumbant doesn't have 50% in the polls a week out from election, he won't ever get to 51% and will lose.
Presidential elections don't generally work this way though. The candidate with the more positive message is usually the one the race breaks towards. Most often, it is the incumbant saying "we are on the right course", and the challenger saying "everything is screwed up".
Reagan v Carter was an exception where Reagan was telling us how great America is, while Carter was blathering about our need to be humble.
This election, Kerry is telling us how screwed up we are and need to obey the UN, while Bush is stroking the flames of patriotism.
It will be an historic event if this election breaks towards the grim reaper. Explainable only by an unpredictable level of vote fraud.
Between the normal democratic voter fraud/intimidation--the possibility/probably of the undecideds breaking to Kerry--and Eliot Spitzer's efforts to drive the stock market down by attacking the insurance/health insurance/financial stocks the last two weeks before the election--the President needs at least a 5% margin.
P.S. Spitzer is doing a good job for Kerry as his efforts have DECIMATED quality companies in those industries in last few days--helping to seriously drive down the value of people's IRA's and mutual funds. Many, many QUALITY blue-chip companies have lost by over $100 billion of market cap in the last few days thanks to Spitzer's efforts--who by the way will be campaigning with Kerry in Florida next week for the Jewish vote.
Beyond that -- one of my simple rules of life is this:
Never trust a man who wears a bowtie.
