Reference thread links for your use.

I notice the Dems are all claiming Obama won this hands down and Republicans are complaining about the moderator Crowley's interruptions, not a sign of those thinking they won.

Both FNC (Republican channel/Frank Luntz on Hannity) and MSNC (Democrat channel, Hardball) did shock/flash focus groups immediate after the 2nd debate this week.
Both were good news for Romney and not so good news for Obama. Undecideds many who voted for Obama in 2008 now say they will vote for Romney, or are leaning that way. Why? The economy and the candidates position on it.

Alternatively if undecideds are irrelevent then why would Romney subject himself to lib moderators, he could just hangout on Hannity and Greta and Rush and hit softballs out of the park. Like Sharon Angle did.

I dont think all committed voters are that bright either. Many live in their own comfortable imaginary worlds.

Has anyone in the media found any voter who voted for McCain/Palin last time who has decided to vote for Obama this time?

RE :”Has anyone in the media found any voter who voted for McCain/Palin last time who has decided to vote for Obama this time?”

Considering that Mccain lost and it was NOT narrowly decided (unlike 2000) it is no surprise that few of those exist.

It is also the reason why undecideds include lots of 2008 Obama voters.

Sadly, “undecideds” are relevant because they get to vote. They are still pretty stupid if they haven’t decided by now.

Sure some of the decideds are dumb. They’re called Democrats.

You will like this then : see #63 here

What annoys me though is those who are obviously decided, for Obama in most cases (the ones I talk to here) but tell me they thought Obama won the 2nd debate, and Bidem won the other, on facts and points, as if they hadnt decided already. They obviously agree with all Os arguments before they hear them so their opinions are not very useful.

Similarly a Rush 24/7 member might play 'unbiased' in evaluating the debate, someone who will always say Obama lost. I occasionally get a freeper who tells me I cant critize Rs because that is 'helping the left' . So what info is in his posted 'opinions' ?
