11. Well, during a primary when the candidates can all seem pretty similar
to each other, I can see where someone would be undecided.

In other words, if one is a Democrat trying to decide between candidates who are Democrats, then it can be difficult.

But when it comes down to choosing between Republican and Democrat, they're usually not that similar. Some of the larger issues...one is either for or against Gay Rights. One is either for or against women's Right To Choose. One is either for or against social aid programs, or starting meaningless wars, or environmental protection, gun control, etc.

I just don't see how anyone could be neutral or uncaring on any of these things.

Not to the extent that they can't decide between one platform or another...

:shrug:
