bush bounce; WORST EVER. heh :)
Bush's 2 point bounce from his convention (which, remember, is defined as the change in a candidate's level of support, not in margin) is the worst ever received by an incumbent president, regardless of party, and the worst ever received by a Republican candidate, whether incumbent or not.

In 2000, Bush received an 8 point bounce. And even his hapless father received a 5 point bounce in 1992.

2. Josh Marshall says that...
Internal polling from both sides indicates a 4 point spread right now. He can't name sources, but says they're credible (to him).

Back to YOUR topic, thank you! Makes me happy...

:-)
