Quote of the Day I

David Sedaris on undecideds:

To put them in perspective, I think of being on an airplane. The flight attendant comes down the aisle with her food cart and, eventually, parks it beside my seat. “Can I interest you in the chicken?” she asks. “Or would you prefer the platter of shit with bits of broken glass in it?”

To be undecided in this election is to pause for a moment and then ask how the chicken is cooked.

In 2004, there were some "smart undecideds." This time, there are none.

What wonderful airline does Mr. Sedaris fly that still gives him multiple (and cooked) meal choices?

I bet it's flight 1997.

The very notion that "smart undecideds" don't exist in this election is ridiculous. The difference is that this time, the smart ones don't like EITHER candidate, and must make up their minds whether to choose one, vote third party, or not vote at all.
