AN EMBARRASSMENT OF CANDIDATES

Lots of choices, few decisions for New Hampshire Democrats (AP, 8/2/2003)

Mary Beth Walz ... is still just as undecided as she was two years ago, when Dick Gephardt came calling, or last summer, when John Edwards made his pitch. By now, she's seen six out of the nine Democrats seeking the nomination.

"Every time I'd walk out of a particular candidate's event, I'd say, 'This is the one,'" she said. "But then I always force myself to step back and put it in perspective."

Recent polls show Walz isn't alone: ... Franklin Pierce College's latest count shows undecideds at 37 percent, up from 31 percent in May.

Just goes to show how out of touch I am. I thought there were high undecideds because none of the candidates is attractive; turns out it's because they're all attractive. Posted by Paul Jaminet at August 2, 2003 4:33 PM
