David Sedaris is great this week:

I don’t know that it was always this way, but, for
as long as I can remember, just as we move into the final weeks of the
Presidential campaign the focus shifts to the undecided voters. “Who
are they?” the news anchors ask. “And how might they determine the
outcome of this election?”

Then you’ll see this man or woman— someone, I always think, who looks very happy
to be on TV. “Well, Charlie,” they say, “I’ve gone back and forth on
the issues and whatnot, but I just can’t seem to make up my mind!” Some
insist that there’s very little difference between candidate A and
candidate B. Others claim that they’re with A on defense and health
care but are leaning toward B when it comes to the economy.

I look at these people and can’t quite believe that they exist. Are they professional actors? I wonder. Or are they simply laymen who want a lot of attention?

I see that Dooce liked it, too, and even had the fun of seeing him at a book reading. She has a YouTube clip of Sedaris doing a reading on Letterman, too.
