The bounce from the DNC for John John? 4 points!

Kerry’s four-point “bounce” is the smallest in the history of the NEWSWEEK poll.

Wow. Could that be any worse? MSNBC attempts to explain it away, of course. I watched the sampling they did with the focus group after the Kerry speech - the bias with the weenie doing the focusing was extraordinary. MSNBC has no shame, though I give Chris Matthews credit for asking some tough questions over the four days.

And the kicker - it was a registered voters poll, which always skews Democratic. So it's quite possible that the Johns got zero bounce from the convention. Now, that would be embarrassing.

No, this would be embarassing. A likely voter poll done by Rasmussen Research shows a fall, not a bounce.

In short, partisanship aside, the DNC was a bonafide failure. The longest infomercial they're going to get, and no ground is gained. Ouch.

UPDATE Zogby sees no bounce for Johnx2
