Actually, it was a description of Undecided voters made during the 2008 election, but I think it's pretty close. The commentator said, "How can you be an Undecided voter NOW? It's like walking up to a person on fire and saying, 'Hey, you're on fire. Would you like to jump in that swimming pool?' and the person saying, 'Ummmmm.............I don't know.'"

Oh, and by the way, I think I speak for dirt everywhere when I say that the dirt is offended by having its intelligence compared to Sarah Palin's.
