How can anyone be undecided at this point?
Honestly, can someone explain this?

Do they want a money-back guarantee?

:wtf:

1. They are toying with us....
It makes them feel important to think they are the ones making the final decision.

4. After last night, they have become irrelevant, IMHO.
I suspect they are poll watchers.

3. The Daily Show had a hilarious bit about this last night.
Samantha Bee gathered several "undecideds" together in a room for a discussion, and then just flipped out on them, calling them for the idiots they are.

5. They like all the attention. Makes them look "smart." Like they're
really weighing all the issues. We're supposed to be impressed by they're dilligence. I think they just like going on cable news.

Every "undecided" I've seen leans one way, or the other. They may not like to admit it to themselves, but they've already made up their minds, too.

6. The Daily Show had a good skit on this last night
Basically, Sammath painted the picture that anyone who is undecided right now is an idiot. It was a great skit.

9. Will the Media please ask them what the hell they want?
To me, the killer was one young student who said "I'm still undecided, because I didn't hear anything new, and they still won't talk about the issues."

Is this woman brain-dead?

Or will she finally admit, "I can't in good conscience vote for *, but I'll be damned if I vote for Kerry."

10. Last week I heard a guy on NPR who made a reasonable point
The election's over a month away. A lot can happen in the world between now and then. The debates are still to come. No one gets a bonus or cash reward for deciding early.

It's easy to dismiss this line of thinking because for everyone here the decision is a no-brainer. But I don't think DU is representative of the general public.

11. I'm not too hung up on the undecideds, they are the people
that don't like Bush, but want a reason to be comfortable with Kerry...that's a fair position to be in.

This debate should have given them GOOD COMFORT.
