USA Today has interesting follow-up on its poll results: more Republicans were ginned up by the Democratic convention than Democrats (11% of Republicans said they were more enthusiastic about voting, 5% of Dems); Bush’s rating didn’t really go down, perhaps because there weren’t ENOUGH harsh attacks on him; people still say Kerry has no clear plan on Iraq–56% said he didn’t have a plan prior to convention, 52% still say it now; perhaps because there wasn’t that much anti-Iraq war rhetoric, the percentage of voters saying the war was a mistake actually fell slightly, from 50 to 47; finally, Kerry had his best day on Friday, but on Saturday Bush was up to 54% and on Sunday was at 53%.
