Here’s the sort of thing I’d just love to hear a politician say sometime. (Preferably just before retirement, where they’d be safe from the backlash.) From a Toronto Star article on the Bush/Kerry debate:
“Did any voters change sides?
Probably not, says Joan Hoff, a presidential historian at Montana State University.
….What about the 8 per cent of American voters who, despite the glaring differences between the two men, say they’re still undecided? Pervasively profiled in the media, they’re expected to determine the outcome on Nov. 2.
‘Who knows? I don’t understand the undecideds,’ says Hoff.
‘Are they stupid? Do they even really exist? I’m starting to think they’re just people who like being interviewed on TV.'”
