Obviously the meat of last night's convention was too late to effect today's poll, what you're seeing is just the normal statistical noise.

Ohh my, ohh my, to hear some of the loons speak they are up by 30!

Everyone knows they should be up by 15 right now and go to 20 later in the week.

Guess not !


Obama to staff, Oh nooooo what is going on..... this is not suppose to be happening.



There has been nothing but negatives from team Obama and the dems.

Not a single positive story has come out and they are the party of change.

How can you trust this party when they cannot even get along between themselves?

I cannot wait to see the circus tonight.

Anyone notice CNN and MSNBC are trying to cover it all up.

I hope Bill Clinton stands up and gives them hell. For Barry Obama to tell him what to say and when to say it is a complete joke. Bill Clinton wont be told what to do by some moron who thinks he is even above Bill Clinton.

Popcorn is ready !!

Don't you guys get tired of looking at the polls every day?

They don't mean anything, and I'd say that regardless of who was up or down.

The only poll that means anything is the one in November.

The "meat" of the convention last night? You must be joking - did you hear Carville's remarks?

Meeshells speech was edited and parsed and re-edited to present this "perception" of an all-american family. Total make-believe, marketed, stage-craft.

I think first impressions are always the best - in Meeshells case, her first impression is by far the truer testiment of her actual views and personality.

If the "polls" are not in your favor, it's just the normal statistical noise? Wow, you a winner, Upton, a real weather vane which is locked in one direction, can I say rusted in place? Too funny!

My husband thinks she was lip syncing. I didn't want to post it yet but was she?

I do not think she meant anything she said, it was not from her heart at all and was a planned thing.

Sure they even used their own cute kids as props.

They are not the normal All American family, not even close.

People are not stupid, the polls are reflecting that.
