Oh so now CNN wants to acknowledge that Kerry got a bounce
Edited on Mon Aug-09-04 07:52 AM by demdem
Hell for a whole week they were talking about not getting a bounce. Now today wonder-boy Bremmer is beaming of the so called delayed bounce in the Time poll Kerry(48-43). The ARG polls in NH and FL that has Kerry leading both by 7. What jackasses.

8. Certainly Not News... I like that.
I'll have to remember it. I remember a time when you could watch CNN and actually learn something - these days, its Fox Jr.

5. Krauthammer is a sad angry man. If Novak is jailed or retires
Krauthammer will be the new "Prince of darkness"

10. You would be too, if you looked like "Mumbles" from Dick Tracy
Krauthammer and Alan Colmes are VERY good arguments for the necessity of corrective facial surgery...

11. Totally off topic
I have to agree with you. Alan Colmes just looks f**n creepy!!
Then again, maybe that's what happens to you for selling your soul and being Hannity's lapdog. :shrug:

4. I seem to remember everyone saying that we wouldn't know for a week
The "no bounce" calls AS the balloons were dropping was pathetic. Seems that after a week we see that indeed there was a bounce, just like when everyone said it would show up IF it happened.

9. Democrats.com was first to note the "no bounce" hoax
They deserve the credit for the early observation that it takes 7 to 10 days after the convention before a bounce can be detected.

Unfortunatly, CNN wasn't the only culprit. USA Today had a "No Bounce" headline on its front page. CBS also had a web page with a "No Bounce" headline, and I recall that it was also reported on-air. Gallup was the polling outfit that did the CNN poll.

6. CNN, Hemmer, Blitzer, Woodruff, Crowley, Schnieder...
They all give me the creeps. I mean that literally! As I watch that channel ( and I do to try to keep up with all the news that is going on...good and bad and how it's presented ), I get this hit of bad energy , like a black dark cloud from something evil!
