Non-baseball: Bouncing
There was some concern that Zell Miller's fiery attack on Kerry at last night's RNC would do more harm than good. That does not appear to be the case:

A four point switch the night after Miller's speech- that's a definite move in favor of the President. So, negativity does work. I guess that's why we see so much of it from both sides.
Perhaps even worse for Kerry is this poll which shows his lead in California dropping to three points- well within the margin for error. It's not that I hold out hope for Bush carrying California- it's that now Kerry has seriously consider spending his money here- an area where he is already at a severe disadvantage.
Oh, and my man Bill Jones is making a move against Barbara Boxer as well. Thank God.
UPDATE: More negative attacks from both parties; ABC and CBS are working on attacks against Bush's Texas Air National Guard service, while several media outlets are investigating possible "fundraising irregularities" in the Kerry campaign. Watch for flying mud...
UPDATE: The latest approval numbers have Bush at anywhere from 53% to 56%.
Sing it with me: "It's beginning to look a lot like Reagan, ev'rywhere you go."
I've been saying it for months, and it's looking more true everyday- this election isn't going to be close, and we'll know it by September 15th.
