Obama's hyped speech did nothing for him

Versus Clinton

3/17 0 46, H 44
3/18 0 45, H 44
Post-speech, post-media spin of it for a full day: 0 46, H 43

So he gained an entire point and even that is more likely due to natural fluctuations produced by the margin of error, not because he gave the greatest speech ever. :sarcasm:

Favorability ratings

3/17 47 fav, 50 unfav
3/18 48 fav, 49 unfav

Post-speech/post-hype: 48 fav, 49 unfav

These are from Rasmussen also.

After the grandma guilt trips he laid on people, expect some real Bradley effect to occur.

6. I could barely get through half of it. The controversy was over

Wright preaching Hate America. BO's speech was all about race

People are so sick of him and his minions making this election about race


It is beyond tedious
