15. I'm not convinced of any single candidate, either.

I think there is a disturbing reality in some of the polls, and the numbers here on DU, which is that there is a high percentage of undecideds. I think that may show a general dissatisfaction in the candidates. There may be no standout to carry the water, in voter's eyes.

We'll see how things are after a couple of debates, to see if a standout emerges and the undecideds have settled on someone with enthusiasm.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
