Want to know why the RATs had no bounce, and the GOP a big one?
Simple - the media.
Prior to the formal RAT convention, the Socialist media had been conducting a continous convention on their behalf. No bounce, because the public wasn't exposed to anything new.
Prior to the GOP convention, the Socialist media filtered and blocked the GOP message. A huge bounce resulted when the GOP was able to speak directly to the public for almost the first time.
Moral of the story?
Bush needs to pierce the Socialist media blockade by making and leading the news - meeting with Putin, going to Florida, announcing new initiatives, etc.

Kerry must be keeping the bricklayers union happy.
Every time kerry gets a new poll result, the bricklayers get a free supply of bricks dropping out of kerry's pants.

The more people get to know Kerry, the more they like Bush.

It's good to see a solid Kerry state go into the tossup or lean Kerry category. If this pattern continues, Kerry is going to have to use money to defend NJ, which is less money that can be used in OH or FL.

BINGO! And there's nothing Carville, Begala, or clinton can do about it. Ultimately, they're stuck trying to promote an unlikable dirtbag. Talk about trying to push a string uphill!

The more people get to know Kerry, the more they like Bush. Absolutely, for if sKerry could go on vacation without ticking off the SS his numbers would go up, not down.

While Carville and Begala are busy trying to put lipstick on the pig, more and more voters in Kerry states are going undecided or Bush.

I'm thinking, even if it's off a few points ... it's still really bad news for Kerry

The Clintonistas who sabotaged Kerry's camp last week, grooming Kerry for a loss, clearing the field for Hillary in 2008 is also real.
