This doesn't look good for Mr. Kerry. No bounce? LOL

Any explanation for this, Kerry supporters? Or should I say Bush-haters?

Analysts said the lack of a bounce may reflect the intensely polarized contest. Nearly nine of 10 voters say their minds are made up and won't change. "The convention, typically a kicking-off point for a party, is now merely a reaffirmation" of where voters stand, said David Moore, senior editor of the Gallup Poll.

Everyone's minds are made up already. And besides that, the convention is just confirming the guy that everyone already knows is the democratic nominee.

I don't think there are many fence-sitters in this election to be swayed either way.

That is interesting. The Newsweek poll showed Kerry 49, Bush 42 and Nade 3. I guess it really shows people have made up their minds. Maybe the new television show "The 4400" is about the only undecided voters left in the country? :)

Polls, pfft on them. The proof will be on November 2.

We will just have to wait and see when the Republican convention is over and what (if any) bounce Bush gets. I predict at least a 7 pt increase, once he gets to have the podium to himself.

Completely agreed.
