So The GOP convention took what little bounce Obama got away?

Does this reflect the total McCain bounce ? or will that show in the next day or so?

Today (Sunday, Sept 7th)

Gallup has it McCain 48% Obama 45%
2% plus or minus

Ras is tied
zogby has McCain up by 4

That is as of today, But John Zogby said he thinks the McCain bounce will be higher in the next 1-2 days

McCain could have whomped Gore in 2000.
Romney could beat Obama with one hand tied behind his back.

At least, that's my prediction, which, of course, will never have to prove itself.

How we choose who we choose as presidential candidates is a mystery to me.
