I may be wrong but I think he updated it.<BR/><BR/>Obama's convention bounce hasn't been erased by an erosion of support for Obama, but by increased support for McCain.

By the end of the weekend, all the polls were showing significant movement in Obama's direction. Those same polls have now drifted back to near where the race was before the start of the conventions.Gary R.
