THE INDEPENDENTS

Here’s a useful guide to where the Independents are leaning. Surprising to me is the fact that in Florida, Kerry has a minuscule lead but has a 19 point lead among independents. That must worry Bush. North Carolina and Colorado seem close too, as Kerry hater/voter Mickey Kaus has noticed, with strong independent support for Kerry. There are no Kerry-leaning states where the undecideds are leaning Bush.
