My prediction is that Kerry will get a negligible bump coming out of the democrat convention then the press will declare that the era of convention bumps is over. When Bush gets a significant bump coming out of the Republican convention those stories will mysteriously disappear.

I predict that you're right, a neglible bump is expected by the media, anyway. They are already stating that they will not cover much of the conventions. They would rather refuse to cover the boring Democrat convention than have to cover the Republican convention in the same manner, risking giving Bush more of a bounce later in the election season.
