Think Tim Russert is grabbing his marker and board?? Wonder what he would think. Perhaps that Obama made a critical mistake in dissing Hillary??

People vote for the top guy. A good veep pick can't hurt the guy at the top. A poor one can only lead to questions about his fitness for the top job. Both candidates had different political needs; Obama needed experience and McCain needed to nail down an indifferent conservative base.

Only thing right now that is showing is Obama up by 8 in Gallup (RVs) -Today.
Rasmussen has Obama up 4 (LVs) - Today.

One more day, and we’ll see the final results of the bounce (three-day rolling average). By Monday, we’ll see what the initial bounce is for Palin.

The real measure will be after the Hurricane and GOP Convention - then we’ll get a real taste of where the public stands, having heard all of the speeches.

“...People vote for the top guy....”

Obviously, you were asleep during the Lieberman announcement in 2000, and the Reagan announcement in 1976.

Or else you would never say such a thing.

Does the Gallup poll include any sampling from yesterday?
I thought I saw that it was a three-day rolling average from August 26-28.

Republicans might have had a harder time against Hillary, she really did well at the DNC....we were very impressed by her...Hopefully Palin can step up to the play and at least hit a triple...

To Obama: You have chosen unwisely.

To McCain: You have chosen wisely.

“any updated Rasmussen or Gallup tracking??”

Since Thursday, the news seems to be avoiding polls. Wonder why? Could it be Obama lost ground, when he should of got a 10-15 point bump?

My apolitical wife has a perfect record as my political measuring stick.

I taped the Palin speech, watched it with her, and asked her what she thought.

Her response: Palin looked “smart” and “genuine” and a good choice.

BUT She was suspicious of why McCain chose her.

I think it’s net gain - but shaky as of now

The Pres poll is a rolling three-day average.

I believe the Palin poll was a one-day poll looking only for an initial reaction/feedback/impression.

There you have it. Likely voter "dead-cat" bounce of 4% for Obambi.

And it will dry up by Wednesday.

Just wait until Authentic Sarah goes head to head with Pinnochio Joe. The shaky should disappear.

Just to measure your measuring stick: Did she believe a word Mitt Romney said?

. While their policies would take America in the wrong direction
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Typical Clinton/liberal talk. Would it kill them to say,”while I BELIEVE their policies would...” They prefer to state things as though they have the monopoly on truth.
