Is it unusual for there to be so many “Undecideded” at this point in the game? If so, I believe it’s because the thought of Pres Barky makes these, “Undecideded” voters uncomfortable/nervous but they’re not sure they want another Republican in the White House. Maybe the fact that Americans have typically rejected one-party control of both houses of Congress AND the White House is causing the break in favor of McCain.
Seems to me, just my FOGGY old memory, that it’s unusual to have THIS many undecideds this late in the game.
Seems like an awful lot with only hours to go have not decided.
Are these PUMAs?
In August I was standing in line at an airport shop. The guy in front of me was buying a magazine with O on the cover. The clerk repeatedly asked him what he thought about Obahma. He wouldn’t answer and finally said he hadn’t made up his mind. I piped up and said “McCain!” The guy turned to me and grinned like a Cheshire cat. The clerk looked at me and said she was for Hillary, but if Hillary didn’t make it, then yeah, McCain. There you have it: an undecided, a PUMA, and a definite McCain supporter—three out of three votes for McCain.

I have a theory about the undecides. We’ve heard, I think it was Rasmussen on Fox a couple of weeks ago, say that the “refuse to answers” ratio is high this year. I too heard the 80%+ number. If that is true, then the people who are answering these flipping polls are the slugs who can never make up their mind and probably don’t end up voting anyway.
