Ultimately, few uncommitted voters' minds were made up as a result of this debate, according to the poll. Immediately after the debate, 15 percent of them said they are now committed to Obama, and 12 percent are now committed to McCain. But most - 72 percent - remain uncommitted.

Anyone else tired of the media pandering to these attention whores? Such drama queens.. make a pick already..

But when it came to the war in Iraq, which some voters asked about during the debate, McCain was the stronger candidate -- an advantage that has been consistent in CBS News Polls for many months. Before the debate, 55 percent of uncommitted voters said that McCain would make the right decisions about the war -- that rose to 61 percent after the debate. Less than half thought Obama would make the right decisions on Iraq.

It seems like a game changing foreign crisis would be helpful right about now. Israel? GO hit Iran...

Uncommitted not because they wont vote for McCain, but because they do not trust Obama!!

we really need to push the secret life of Obama...and his connections to Kenyas Odinga!!!

Whooooo boy wait till they see this one on the news...

they will be voting, but like the rest of us it wont be for McCain....IT WILL BE AGAINST OBAMA!

During the primaries, the “townhall” audiences were packed with Democrat staffers and established political activists.

Anyone spot any politicos in the audience of “uncommitted voters”?

It’s amazing how CBS polled voters are so anxious to pay more taxes (support 0bama).

I said it before, anyone who is "uncommitted" at this point is either retarded or a liar.

I don't care much what retards and liars think.

I turn the channel when they come on.

I don’t need them to tell me what I should think.

I’m tired of them. They should fire all of them.

They already know who they’re voting for. This group is just a front to provide the “upswing” at the final moments. Anyone truly ‘uncommitted’ at this point is a cretin who shouldn’t be voting anyway.

I am truly afraid that “Americans” are more than willing to let someone else pay their way and give up freedom in order to achieve the free ride. Touqueville warned that democracy has a finite life expectancy because people are more concerned with economic and social equality than liberty.
Universal suffrage guarantees that the “uninformed masses” will vote to steal money from others to put in their own pockets (socialism). My tagline has been there since the primaries; I do not like McCain, but I fear Obama’s America. A suggestion of another 300 billion dollar bailout by McCain sealed his fate.
Senator McCain has apparently lost one of the most important battles of his life. The citizens needed a leader to tell them socialism is poison; instead he offered socialism light with a lecture on cutting government spending.
I’m finding it hard to be optimistic today. Sarah in 2012

Is “uncommitted” a politically correct euphemism for ‘barely sentient’?

I didn’t watch the debate, choosing to follow it here first on FR. From the comments I’d say that McCain was terrible.

I think a McCain 20 yrs ago would have cleaned this guys clock.

A winning ticket would have been Romney-Palin

I think conservatives and liberals are in agreement on this one...

There’s no reason to be uncommitted at this stage of the game, just pick a side already!!
