Forget what the Paid Pundits say...Obama will get a BIG Bounce from his Historic Speech Tonight

[Bullet1987]

Looking at the bounce Obama has recieved from the earlier nights of the Convention (the Michelle and Hillary bounce)...there is no reason to think by the time the DNC Convention is over...Obama SHOULD be up by about 10%. Forget what the right-wing pundits proclaim about Obama having his speech in a stadium...and that he could be over-doing it. This is a historic night, and there is no reason to think that Obama won't hit it out of the park like he always does.

Tonight, we're watching history unfold.

1. Indeed he will.

I was in political polling in 2000 and it was STUNNING what a bounce Gore got from The Kiss.

FDR: Well, I'm glad we didn't have to resort to that!
ER: So unseemly!
FDR: Hop in Old Girl, we're headed to Denver!
ER: Party on, Franklin!
FDR: Party on, Babs!

2. Minimize the expected bounce - the game of diminished expectations
