|
Written by David Hill
|

|
How should pollsters allocate the undecided vote in a presidential race like the contest between Sens. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and Barack Obama (D-Ill.)?

This column is written before Mrs. Clinton spoke on Tuesday night, but she will not blow this opportunity to shine in front of a larger national audience than she has ever had. She will crisply articulate her programs and proposals and will come across as forceful, committed and energetic. Women from coast to coast will watch her and wonder why she isn’t on the ticket. |
