I have to say that we shouldn't be surprised that groups of undecided voters don't have many

minorities in them. Obama is cleaning up among minorities so it shouldn't be shocking that a room full of undecided voters didn't have many blacks or Hispanics. It also shouldn't be shocking that Fox had an all white focus group for the same reason.

1. Really? You're trying to justify excluding minorities?

sigh

[demwing]

4. That's your take away?

jesus...

how about the fact that minorities have less "undecideds" because they've already overwhelmingly decided to support the President?

5. No, Faux Noise is.

6. well what should they do?

The last poll I have seen had Obama up 95% to 0 among black voters. So 1 out 20 black voters are undecided. Blacks make up about 12% of the voting public. .05 * .12 is .0006 meaning that 6 out of every 10,000 voters are undecided blacks. Now last I checked focus groups don't have anything like 1,666 people in them.

7. It sounds like a factual statement to me...that "undecideds don't have many minorities." nt

2. I think you make a good point.

3. Undecided focus group = Repukes too ashamed to call themselves GOP, or.

They shouldn't vote as they have no pressing issues to spur them to learn the issues. Just stay undecided and unregistered and keep voting for American Idol, morans.

8. or they could hold views that place them not solidly in one or the other party

To take one example say you are a pure libertarian. If you are you believe that there should be very little regulation of personal conduct (say abortion) which would tend to make you a Dem but you also believe that there should be little regulation of economic conduct (say businesses) which would tend to make you a Rep. That person would have a hard time making up his/her mind.

9. Sorry, but the person you just described doesn't have a mind.

10. really?

why does someone who believes in limited government in all areas have no mind?
