3. The numbers are 52-45

So a 7 point lead for Bush. The lead is up from 3, so by my book that's a 4 point bonce, or a 2 point swing.

Still, better than 11.

6. Likely voters

Edited on Mon Sep-06-04 02:41 PM by demdem

Likely voter samples assume a small turnout, RV assumes a high turnout. Does anybody really expect a low turnout? Just look at the size of the Kerry crowds for your answer.

9. It's a 2% bounce.

Bush was at 50% prior to the convention.
Now at 52%.

Did CNN say it was 4%? Well, that ain't right.

11. They announced Bush's puny bounce - then ripped Kerry

CNN is now officially worse than Fox. Shill Schneider then brought on to "analyze' and he prattles on about Kerry getting "no bounce" and how the Dems "better hope" the election is not about "leadership" because Bush is seen as such a strong "leader". They then proceed to Kerry's event in PA and spent time showing the band of isiots who showed up to protest not mentioning that you can't get within 10 miles of AWOL or Big Dick without signing a Fascist loyalty oath. You're better off watching Fox at this point.

12. Look ya�ll

Bar circumstances ie war, jobs, weather, and lets not forget scandals. The undecided will tune in during the debates imho. The polls do not reflect the true voting public this time. They rely heavily on people who voted last time. Remember a pre 9/11 world before the bubble burst in the high tech industry. Remember Florida . Remember no deficit. Remember the republican base is shorn up by hatred .Remember Zell . This will fade by Nov.
Remember hope is on the way!
