Just like the title says.... Does anyone know a genuinely undecided voter?

I've found that after being presented with the truth about several things, not so many.

yes, my younger brother. he's 20 and doesn't give a f**k about politics/elections etc. The only reason that he's even registered to vote is because I had to drive him to get his Driver's License renewed in May and the DMV asked if he would like to be registered to vote on the automatic questionnaire.

He just looked with a blank stare as if to say 'who gives a sh**" and i had to tell him to get registered.

And in general he's smarter, attends a way way way more elite college than i did, and 95% sure that he'll be more successful at life than me.

As for if he'll vote this November....not sure.

Everybody on C-D seems to have decided years ago. There are some who say they are independent, but their rhetoric and preferences tell you who they are really voting for. I think the fact that they are on a political board gives away their ideals anyway.

We know a couple: my pot smoking brother, he is a Paul lover of course, but has always voted Republican. He doesn't know which way to go, but he lives in Ca for I don't think it makes a lot of difference how he vores and good friends of ours are true liberals, well he is, neither have ever voted Republican but when Obama came out the amnesty plan, they decided they would not vote for him. I have a hunch they will not vote period.

Well, I'm about 95% sure I'm voting for Obama, but I suppose there is the remote possibility that something could happen between now and November to change my mind.

My sister is undecided. She grew up in California in a pretty liberal family but she has been corrupted by now living in Missouri and converting to the Catholic Church. She likes Obama's stands on helping the poor and doing more for the working and middle class than the Republicans but she is unhappy with his stands on moral issues and thinks he needs to draw lines between "right and wrong" like she seems to think Romney does. Plus she is under the influence of her husband who leans right but not far right. I know because me and him argued about the last election and they both voted for McCain although my sister likes the Democrat Senator from Missouri. She says she is not decided this time and suprisingly her husband is not totally sold on Romney, mainly because of the Mormon thing, as they have a long history in that part of Missouri.

Dunno, but considering the levels of polarization, IMHO seems like anyone who's still "undecided" at this point, probably ought not to be voting...

How's that saying go, "the only thing left in the middle of the road, is road kill!"

lol, yes at one time, but since they still don't have a job, Obama did not create jobs and they defected :-)
