An average convention bounce is 11 points, but it usually doesn't last long.

the part i find comical is if he's sitting on this information that we are going to be "amazed" by ( some birthers have speculated it is the findings of his mythical "hawaiian investigators" )....... then why doesn't he just call a press conference?
I think he sent a 2nd team of "crack investigators" to look for the 1st set. They found them drinking Mai Tais on a beach on Maui.

I didn't see them pandering to Chinese-Americans in Mandarin or pandering to Filapino-Americans in Tagalog, etc.

We are an English speaking nation and it is an insult to our national language to do that in a public settiing where most in attendence and those watching the convention on TV know English. What the hell is going on in this nation where politicians feel the need to do that? Are Hispanics demanding it or are politicians under some delusion that they are demanding it?

If the Republicans thought they were going to gain some Hispanic votes by doing that they are badly mistaken. Unless they change their political policies to be that of the socialistic Democrats or promise their illegal counterparts amnesty the number of Hispanics voting Republican isn't going to change. We don't need them anyways. Republicans should be pandering to law abiding Americans instead who make up the majority of voters in this country.
Hispanics may be bilingual, but do appreciate when others make an effort to speak spanish, unlike other languages like german, italian, etc. spanish is here to stay and continue being a strong second language in the usa. There are powerful spanish networks that operate out of the usa and rival the big networks in audience, hiapanics will also be the game changers in american politics, I think is a bit too late for the republicans to pander to hispanics after all they have done to alienate them....

Isn't TrickyMitt in Louisiana campaigning?

Under the guise, of course, of checking out Issac's damage with Bobby Jindahl.
