1. And those bounces weren't even that bouncey. |

What'll they do now? They won't let Conyers get subpoena power without a HUGE fight...
I expect things will get even more interesting...

The range of values when those polls hit showed a 95% confidence interval of plus/minus 2%. That means that about 1 in every 20 polls would have values as high as 3% above the mean.
Since his mean over the prior 20 months was about 39%, it was statistically predictable that one poll would provide a 42% approval rating.
That's what happened. It was EXACTLY within a statistically relevant range and indicated no change. Therefore, there was no bounce. The Professor

7. There's not been any rebound |

And that's just what I said, unchallenged, at this website: http://www.debateforamerica.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5094It sure is getting hard to find Republicans to argue with these days at 'open debate' websites.

8. Quite Obviously, We Agree |

I know my statistical analysis. I've taught it at the grad level MANY times! I read your thread. There is no bounce. You know it, i know it, and obviously the more rational right know it.
There's no accounting, however, for the radical right. That 25% will support Silverspoon if he ate a baby on live TV. The Professor

3. And here we got all fussed up over the PT911 movie |

Including me. Obviously it did not work. We just may get him back down to the low 30's again, like the good ole' days in May and June again.
