Nobody knows Obama either but they are throwing their lives at him!
our convention didn’t start yet
The Palin pick wipes out a most likely 10 point bounce.
Yes, if you ignore all polls except Gallup then this is true. However, considering the Gallup poll indicates a much larger swing to Obama then anyone else, it’s conclusions are highly suspect.
Yeah really, wait till it does, Obama/Biden gonna wonder where their socks went!
They had Obambi +5 before the RAT convention so he actually had a negative four point bounce in their polls after his convention.
Rasmussen showed a 4 point bounce and Gallup 8. The events of the convention and the veep pick happened close enough together for it to be difficult to determine exactly what happened. I do believe that there was a small 0bama bounce that was erased by the Palin pick. They were expecting 10 points.
I think its the same poll.
Gallup does not screen for party affiliation. They interview whoever picks up the phone.
As a result, they usually show bigger swings than other pollsters because Democrats are more likely to be willing to talk to pollsters after positive Democrat news (like their convention) and vice versa.
Apologies to all.
“he actually had a negative four point bounce....”
That would be a splat.
If it is tied now, Obama is in trouble.
Well after the convention when America gets a closer look at Palin I wonder how the media will try to hide the bump McCain will get? Will we only see weeks old polls while they try to bail the water that the ship Obama is quickly taking on?
WHERE is the ZOGBY poll from yday?!...it is NOT shown on realclearpolitics.com
BTTT for Sarah Barracuda
Either this writer is completely stupid, or he thinks we are. This comes under the category of “Sarah can’t swim” after being seen walking on water.

That’s what I’m thinking too. It seems like these people (Dems)_are always way ahead at this point.
He's flat with McCain in every poll but Gallup's, it seems.
