Hola, fellow blogger Liming.
Wow. An actual undecided voter. I feel like we should be doing some taxonomy on you, Voticus Pendulus (minus the killing and the painful pokey pins). You do realize you’re worth your weight in gold (or at least candidate mailings) for the next few months? How much was that guy (bet it was Nader) offering you? (Libby’s post)
So, if we, the intrepid Bloggy Bloggers are going to help you, we need some more info to give you a hand. I’m hoping to construct a “waterslide of logic” that will splash you down in the left side of the pool…but before that, I must repeat just how rare and important you are.
Undecided and (potentially?) independent voters are the front axle to this Model T we call America. In Washington, for example, there are roughly equal numbers of R’s and D’s (well, allright, a few more D’s lately). And then there’s some people who say they are an 'Independent,' but when knocked on the head with the ball a few times, they move left or right. That leaves a paltry 5 or 10% who you represent. In the end, all the campaigns are flirting to convince you to take them to the dance. And, *not* targeting you with this analogy, if you do, they’ll definitely score.
So, are you In Fact an Indie? Let’s begin the diagnosis…what do you like about Bush and Kerry?
