Interesting. All the negatives he pointed out were in reference to recent events/conduct by the McCain camp. I guess the question is how much time is some time? It is certainly possible he was leaning towards Obama and it is certainly possible McCain pushed him over the ledge and into Obama's waiting arms. I don't know how you can be probabilistically certain one way or another.

p.s. I still don't get undecided voters but if that's how they feel that's how they really feel.
