One in seven voters still have their heads up their @$$...

NEW -> Contingent Buyer Assistance Program
The big debate on Morning Joe was that the "1 in 7" were the same group of voters who supported Hillary, liberal white men. Joe also said these were the same people that twice voted for Reagan, Clinton, and Bush. Basically, he thinks they aren't really undecided, they are just lying about their intention to vote for McCain.

I call bullshit. Liberal white men would be MORE likely to vote for Obama, not less, if for no other reason than to assuage their white guilt.
 
I agree Nude. If someone supported Hillary, there is nothing about McCain that would attract those votes other than to try and punish Obama for winning the primary. If someone liked Hillary's policies, then they would very much dislike McCain's.
 
I believe the truly undecides will break for McCain. Obama is a charismatic person, and the people who are voting for him are generally very supportive. If they haven't fallen under the spell by now, they probably won't.
 
undecideds will go to Obama imo, as McCain is the defacto incumbent(linked to Bush)

everytime I see these "undecided" groups on tv I just shake my head. Are these the same people who hold up the line trying to decide between a Big Mac and a Quarterpounder? If they aren't able to make a decision by now, maybe they should abstain from voting.
 
I heard a guy from Pew on NPR this afternoon talking about the undecideds. Their polls have them as 8% he says because they don't push as hard for an answer. Of the undecideds, they are divided amongst the conflicted, the unengaged and the ones who won't actually vote. They go and look at the pollees history and find that half of these people won't actually vote. So according to him, you have at most 4% undecided who are actually going to bother to cast a ballot.

He says that the undecides who will actually vote will most likely go mostly to McCain. He also said this group is made up of people who are less educated. Looking at the latest poll of polls it's 50 to 43, so if this guy is correct the best McCain can hope for popular vote wise is 46 or 47. The latest CNN electoral map has now given Obama NV, CO, VA and IA and the latest polls in NC, OH and FL show Obama ahead by the margin of error. And the best one on their electoral map is that AZ is now only a lean McCain!
