Does the US have a "large bloc" of undecided voters?
The media has been promoting the idea that alot of people still can't decide whether to vote Democratic or Republican. I think it's BS. In the 2000 campaign, some people complained that the two parties were too much alike. They can't claim that this time. I couldn't post a poll, so I'll just say 5% undecided. (That's undecided, not Independent). What do you think?

1. No. You're right. 95% of voters have made up their mind.
This year, it's going to be about mobilizing the bases and getting the vote out.

2. No, there are not a lot of 'undecided' voters out there. Most people have
made up their minds by now. And anyway, exactly how would the media in this country know that? Have they asked everybody? Well, they forgot to ask me.

And another point, does anyone seriously think that they would be honest about who people thought was the best candidate? Their boy is losing, and they sure as hell don't want that news making the rounds.
