71. What evidence do you have for anything that you are saying?
Undecideds are undecided between Obama and McCain. Not between Obama and Nader.

You keep claiming that the majority of America is much more progressive than it really is. Yes, the Republicans have a major brand problem due to the last 7 years of Bush and his policies, which is why Obama is favored to win. That does not mean that America has suddenly become more progressive at heart. Hopefully, energizing a new generation of voters will help with that, but that is not enough to claim that a majority of Americans are as progressive as you. That is called denial. You can continue to put your fingers in your ears and say that "America is as left as I am, and will vote for a candidate who is as left as I am," but all that serves to do is help Republicans to win.

It isn't an accident that Bill Clinton was the only Democratic president since 76. And exit polls indicate he would have won even if Perot wasn't in the race.
