Who's Undecided?

In this election year I always thought the pollsters were missing the third-party/independent vote. Last night a CNN pollster proved my point.

In FL the poll showed Obama & McCain at 46% and 8% Undecided. But when the voters were given a bigger choice the vote was:

Obama - 48%
McCain - 45%
Nader - 4%
Barr - 1%
McKinney - 1%
Undecided - 1%

First it seems McCain is the loser this year to the Third-Party/Independent Candidates in FL. Second the voters are not as Undecided as some think. But I still can not explain why Obama gained.

Some other states - Registered Voters:

COLORADO
Obama - 42%
McCain - 43%
Barr - 3%
McKinney - 2%
Nader - 7%
Undecided - 3%

NEVADA
Obama - 41%
McCain - 41%
Barr - 5%
McKinney - 3%
Nader - 6%
Undecided - 4%

NEW MEXICO
Obama - 50%
McCain - 36%
Nader - 8%
Undecided - 6%

PENNSYLVANIA
Obama - 47%
McCain - 38%
Barr - 1%
Nader - 7%
Undecided - 7%

Do you think I am on to something?
