We don't know what people who aren't in the polls are thinking. They are the elusive 'unknown' or 'expected' voters, which many pollsters are trying to extrapolate via various formulas.
If nothing else, it's expected that more people who are currently off the radar will come out in droves. The issue I have is what makes people banking on them so certain that they won't break down similarly along political lines as the larger electorate?
but my main point is that we don't know how effective kerry's strategy has been on the people who weren't registered to vote last election cycle and are currently not being probed during these polls.
