IRONIC TIMES FEATURE
Profile of Key Voter Block
On November 2nd, a relatively small group of swing voters, called "Persuadables" by experts, will decide the election. Here is how these voters describe themselves:
They go to church, but not as often as they should.
They read the newspaper, but not as frequently as they ought to.
They're faithful to their spouses, but not completely.
They vote, but not as consistently as they would like to.
They're not very familiar with the candidates, but hope to learn more sometime.
They pay their bills, but not always on time.
They don't cheat on their taxes, except now and then.
They'd like to learn more about the issues, but just don't have the time.
