Well, he may have a point. Obama got a bigger bounce from killing Bin Laden and that didn't last beyond Memorial Day.

interesting fact... Sept 10, 2008... barry obama was polling 2 points LOWER than mccain.  just heard this.

Only 57 days til the election.  GALLUP showing obama +2 after convention, and romney actually -1 after convention. 

so much can happen in 2 months.  But romney needs to shake this repution of not giving specifics about their budget plans.
