Listen, I really don’t think it’s that big of a deal. I’m just countering the “talking point” that there wasn’t a bounce. I think it’s pretty clear to any rational observer that there was a “bounce”.

Some polls might show a slight uptick, but it's within the margin of error and historically quite small. Don, your anti-no-bounce narrative was handled pretty well when you used it at One Utah.

It's a little early to be choosing a winner. I look forward to the debates to see how good Barack is on his feet without a speech writer to help him, and how well McCain can control his temper - this should be fun to watch Yes there was a 6 point bounce according to some, but who cares?

Is this Rush's and Hannity's talking point for today? Gallup, Rasmussen and RealClearPolitics all clearly show a "bounce" from pre-convention polling.

It totally stole the thunder of the Democratic convention and it's all the news has talked about all day, and will undoubtedly carry into the weekend. The McCain camp was masterful in keeping it a secret, trotting out Romney and Pawlenty as potential candidates and making all of us believe it was a three man race (when you include long-shot Lieberman). -Eric Political ideologies aside, I think you have to look at the Sarah Palin announcement as the feat of the week.

Who is the biggest failure of the week? A tough one, but as there has been no meaningful bounce I guess I'd have to saw the DNC convention. What was the biggest fiasco? The premature obituary published by Bloomberg News for Steve Jobs on Wednesday. And who accomplished the feat of the week? McCain in duping everyone by naming Sarah Palin for VP.
