Do undecided voters really exist?

[HEIL PRESIDENT GOD]

I've been wondering this for years. The only undecided voters I've ever met are people trying to decide whether to vote or not.

1. Of course they do

I canvassed and there were quite a few.

3. I wonder if there's a gap, though

Between what people say and what they think. Nasty people will keep a salesperson pitching after they reject a product, out of spite.

[JohnKleeb]

6. I dunno

Hopefully by now their opinions have changed.

[whistle]

2. Gallup is not a very reliable source of defining undecided voters....

...in my opinion.

4. If George Bush doesn't excite the Democratic base

then it is too weak a foundation.

Go for those who are unsure of Bush and unsure of Kerry. Reassure them.

5. Everyone I know is registered to vote

and decided long ago to vote against Bush. Some are still in a quandry as to whom to vote for-Kerry or Libertarian (they were former Republicans).

7. Interesting...

Flame me silly, but I think in the long run it is better if they vote libertarian. We don't need former Repug votes--they are lost to Bush anyway, like our Naderites. If Libertarians started to pick up ANY votes at all, the GOP would have to think about cleaning up its act.

8. I won't flame you

because I agree. I'd much rather have them send the Repukes a message than to sit this one out.

9. With BBV, there is a bigger question:

do voters really exist?

[Crunchy Frog]

10. How about just yes?

I think it would take a major sociological study to figure out who these people are and what drives them.

Everything else is just pure speculation, much of it colored by our own frustration.

11. If they are still "undecided" at this stage...

They are going to vote for Bush anyway regardless of the facts.

12. I met an undecided to day while canvasing

He said he was undecided, proclaimed all politicians were crooks. But after we left his house (30 min. later), I said I think he just wanted to talk. He was a retired widower. Lively old fart though, my daughter learned a lot today!
