Gallup National Poll Results

Republicans have effectively stifled the (Poll Bounce) results that occurred
due to the Democrat National Convention (DNC).

According to the Gallup Polls…
before the Republican National Convention (RNC)
- Barack Obama led John McCain by 7 points

after RNC
- John McCain now leads Barack Obama by 4 points

…thats results in an 11 point bounce in favor of John McCain.

why is this significant ? this is an incredible shift in trust… in who can
“do the job”.

but what’s more important are some internal numbers.

A specific Gallop Poll question:
“Who do you viewed as more capable in turning around the country”

before the RNC
- Obama led by 19 points

after the RNC
- Obama now leads by 3 points

that’s a 16 internal point shift.

the Obama campaign states
- “that doesn’t matter”…

even though the the Obama campaign has previously stated
- “this number is very important”.
