Undecideds Still

Submitted by Ted Jastrzembski on Mon, 01/12/2004 - 01:00.

In collaring a few "undecideds" for their leanings at this point in the race they are telling me they are still pretty much undecided. The problem they say is that they want a composite candidate, that no one candidate has grabbed them to the extent that it pushes the others to the side. And surprising to me that the indecision isn't based so much on candidate positions on issues, but rather on style and background--and can they beat GWB. One composite I heard was Clark (international/military), Dean (fire and intensity), and Edwards (articulate and smooth). But I think this one is leaning toward Edwards.
Clark has been getting a bit of a boost here in the Upper Valley lately. His creds internationally are winning people over, and he comes across with an approachable sincerity.

I am registered as an

Submitted by NHPR Listener on Fri, 01/16/2004 - 13:11.

I am registered as an undeclared voter in New Hampshire. That gives me the luxury of voting for the issueas and the candidates and not a party...something that is very important to me as I find party politics childish and devisive.

So.....come January 27th I have a lot of choices. Do I ask for a Democratic ballot and do one of the following: vote for the candidate whose views are most like my own but is almost surely not going to get the nomination.....vote for the annointed front runner who underwhelms me, but is the likely nominee......vote for the candidate that I think stands the best chance to defeat President Bush in the general election?

Or do I ask for a Republican ballot and vote for any Republican _but_ Bush and hope that enough people join me and send a message of no confidence to the Republican party and pray that gets John Ashcroft out of power and our constitution back?

In the end, I don't think Bush is beatable. Not because he's a good or bad president, but because he _is_ the president and the American public perceives itself as being in a wartime situation.
