I watched the 1988 convention on a black and white 13" TV!

In 1996 I was there 3 of 4 nights.

This year's bounce will be about 10!

With the conventions being so close together this year, any bounces will be difficult to measure.

I thought they were calling it the Post-Convention "Road Show" now.

I predict that Obama will get a huge bounce, and just a note after 3 days on the doors and phones -- I swear to God he has more support w/ Independents on the doors than I have expected in Arizona....I may have to change my universe pretty drastically based on the numbers.
