i have the sense that, this time out, the polls are as much about generating interest in the press coverage of the election as they are about the election.
but maybe that is a function of where i live--i do not know anyone who is undecided, nor do i know anyone who knows anyone who is undecided.
i sometimes wonder who these people are, the Undecideds--where they live---if they are a family somewhere that fields telephone calls from polling companies as a full time job.
sometimes beaver or wally undecided is out when the calls come.
sample error 3%...
i do not have the sense that the debates are that important
does anyone have a sense of much play in the electorate at this point?
not based so much on the papers/tv, but on their social networks?
of course the advertisers who would support the debate programming, brought to you by archer daniels midlands and bud light, hope that there are many undecideds out there.
but seriously, i dont see it...do you folks?
