1. EIGHT POINT BUMP

So far.

In that poll, we start at a low of 46 McCain 44 Obama.

And Obama hasn't even give his speech yet.

21. If that's what they admit to -- it's at least 54

They have tried their best to stall on those polls.

Don't trust them one bit.

[my3boyz]

6. This despite having McCain and the media gang up on him this entire

convention? Impressive. He would be way up if the media would stop repeating McCain talking points.

19. Who the f

is Kathleen Parker? And why is she right and everyone else is wrong? :rofl:

[Zenmaster]

15. This bump doesn't even take last night into consideration

"The latest three-day Gallup Poll Daily tracking average (Aug. 25-27) is directly coincident with the first three days of the Democratic National Convention in Denver, and is no doubt beginning to reflect the typical convention "bounce" that Gallup has observed in most party conventions in recent decades. There is a lag of sorts involved in the daily tracking; interviewing is conducted in most parts of the country before that evening's high-focus speeches have taken place. Thus, the current three-day average would reflect any impact of Monday night's speech by Michelle Obama, and Tuesday night's speech by Hillary Clinton. "


Meaning, tommorow's will include last night's awesome speeches and Saturday's will finally include Barack's acceptance speech. Obama will break 50% this weekend, no doubt. Can McCain plummet below 40%? That would be nice.

17. At least the talking heads will no longer quote Gallup.

I do not want a close election. Go Obama.

22. I'm the last person to be a spoiler, but

HTF does John McCain shows 80% to 53% Obama as Commander in Chief,
where does gallup gets this type of polling???? who are these
people that they talked to??? is this race related???

I'm baffled....anyone...:shrug:

[K8-EEE]

23. Corp media preview: BUT WHY WASN'T IT MORE?

I would like to know what kind of bounce McCain is supposed to get hugging GWB and those idiot GOP criminals!
