The Power Of Workplace Chit Chat
Why would September 6-8 be a better period for Bush than September 3-5, right after the convention?
Because by the 6th, everybody had heard that Bush kicked ass at his convention and he had a huge lead in the polls. When people came back to work on the 7th, the water cooler chatter passed it around.
Then he asks:
And could Fox’s polling period, which does not include September 6, mean they missed Bush’s best day and he was starting to go downhill a bit?
Could be. As the news that his bounce was questionable began to filter through the grapevine, people probably started to get a grip. Now, with these new numbers based upon the old numbers, the process may reassert itself for awhile.
But reality bites. If Bush has a lead it is still small and manageable. And nobody’s measured since the news came out that he was a perfumed little sissy in the national guard who called his daddy in every time he had to do something he didn’t want to do. That could slow his alleged big mo just a tad.
