Yep, both spikes came right after that candidate's convention. It just goes to show how short of memory people have. They were in love with Obama a few weeks ago, then they were in love with Palin and now it is McCain. It seems like whatever happened most recently is what people take into consideration. That is why the October surprises always seem to work. In the last election there was that sudden Bin Laden tape that happened to show up a few weeks before the election which somehow gave Bush a little bump and helped him. I won't be surprised at all if suddenly we catch a major terrorist or convict a major terrorist or something big regarding Iraq is announced about 2-3 weeks before the election.
