Then there's people like me, sitting on the fence with a week to go. We're the ones who will make the decision and many of us are having, or trying to have an intelligent discussion about this. Possibly the most important vote that any of us have cast.
Distractions that insult our intelligence are likely to probe the stubborn, rebellious psyche of our Scottish nature and push us off the fence into the Yes camp.
