Sadly the “undefined middle” usually swings elections based on the same sorts of tactics that get people to watch TV programs, buy laundry detergent, or invest their 401k.

Sorry…that may seem cynical but I believe it to be true of the current state or our democracy.

I wish I could disagree with you, but it’s true. Obama inspired a lot of voters that had no idea of why they were voting for him. At the BHO meet and greets, I’d often try to discuss what policies they liked of BHO’s and some did not have a clue, nor care. Palin had that same kind of “I just love her” appeal. Sadly, you need to reach those voters too.
