No Bounce. No Boost.

From combined dispatches


quote:

The Democratic presidential ticket did not profit from last week's Boston convention and even slipped behind President Bush among likely voters, a new CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll of likely voters showed yesterday.


A new Zogby poll out Friday shows the Kerry-Edwards ticket steady with 48 percent of likely voters. The same poll from July 7-9, listed Kerry-Edwards with 48 percent of the vote, three weeks before the convention. Political analysts say since 1964, the typical post-convention boost has given candidates a six-percent increase at the polls.




Just another reason to not fret about Kerry and Company.

Last candidate to poll this poorly was 49 state loser George McGovern. Will history repeat itself?
