8. I think it is more of a Palin dip. 
 There are so many scandals on-going I can keep count. The media is in a feeding frenzy. Plus the related story of McCain's pathetic attempt to vet her. It has been a bad 3 days for the McCain campaign and I am not sure the convention is going to help them much unless Palin can pull off a speech of a lifetime.



Prior to the Demcratic Convention, they were talking about a 15 point bouncy from the convention in order to win.

Sucks to be the dems. Palin has shut down all talk about Obama. Even Obama's only press time is when he talks about her.

There's a great article in today's New York Post by Cindy Adams.  The link is here:

Here's a pretty good quote . . .

Quote
Look, in terms of Democratic women, there's an intensity of feeling that the party passed them over. I've not been politically active before. Never had an affiliation before. Didn't even know the key issues. But John McCain asked me to reach out because I can talk about economy and I can talk about women's issues, so I got involved.

"I'm meeting with these women everywhere - Colorado, Ohio, Nevada, Scranton, Penn., where Joe Biden's so big. Every important swing state, every place where Hillary ran big. Not New York because we may not win New York.

"These women are right now being told, 'The party doesn't own your vote.'

"And because of what happened to me at Hewlett Packard, women empathize with me the same way they empathize with Hillary. We're both fighters."

Says a lot, doesn't it?

Looks like he did a pretty good job to me.  Every single thing you've thrown at her has failed to stick, and failed spectacularly. 

Another Republican made you look like fools.  And it was easy.
