I still don't get the part where Yes is on the brink of victory despite no credible poll giving them a score above the 30s percent. Can we just get clear, barely more than one in three people asked the referendum question are prepared to state that yes, they want Scotland to become an independent country. This is the same ball park the separatist movement has been in since forever.

Personally, I'm a fan of the theory that Unionism is akin to Toryism in the late 1980s: it's not cool, but a lot more people will vote for it in the privacy of the ballot booth than would ever admit to it in public. There is hard work to be done, but the separatists are not going to win this. A lot of those Don't Knows will vote, and most of them will vote No.
