I'm Still Undecided

 Sure you are.

You couldn't have two candidates who are less alike (well, in hindsight, George W. and anybody he ran against, but that's another story).

So why the indecision?

Racsims plays a part, although we will never know for sure how big a part. Likewise, some just don't want to say they aren't going to vote for McCain because he is too darn old.

Obama's race shouldn't be an issue, but anybody who doesn't think it will be is a fool. I'm from the deeeeeeeeeeeep south, and it still plays a part in everybody's life over the age of 30. More for some than others, but it is always a factor in some aspect of our society.

I didn't think McCain's age was or should have been an issue at all (other than for the comedians) until he picked Palin as his running mate. Suddenly his age and health are fair game, but he made the choice.

The latest polls show that between 1 in 7 and 1 in 10 people are still undecided. Four days before the race.

Right.

In my opinion, and that's all it is, most people who are claiming they are undecided aren't. They know who they are going to vote for, they just don't want to admit it. Some will vote for McCain, some for Obama. In the south, I think Obama will do better than expected. I think a lot of people will actually vote for him here but just don't want to admit it. I think it will break the other way and more will go for McCain. Let's see.

I do think McCain will lose a lot of people who are saying they will vote for him, but when the curtain closes will vote for the big O.

But I've been wrong before.
