Hillary Clinton gets convention bump at least twice as big as Donald Trump’s
Hillary Clinton is coming out of last week's Democratic National Convention with soaring poll numbers just as Donald Trump's campaign is hobbled by one self-inflicted wound after another.
In less than a week, Trump has managed to claim that the upcoming election will be "rigged", attack the father of a slain Muslim American soldier, and claim that Russia is not involved in Ukraine. And these are just a few examples of what has made the last few days a tough one for the Republican nominee.
Based on polls from six polling firms conducted at least partially after the end of the Democratic convention, it appears that Clinton's campaign has received a boost of almost nine points.
Though convention boosts occur in almost every U.S. election campaign, this one is on the higher side.
Clinton advantage widens
The Presidential Poll Tracker, which reacts to swings in polling more slowly at this stage of the campaign than it will as the election approaches, has shown an improvement in Clinton's standings.
At the height of Trump's post-convention surge, he trailed the Democratic nominee by just two points. But that gap has widened once again to about four points.

Trump has an assortment of sponsorships from all of today's most successful lemonade stands.
Trump can start being concerned when his own party supporters start picketing his conventions.

Clout?? He's a frickin' lame duck Pres soon to be shown the door along with all that unfinished hopey changey bs.
Considering how the senate and house turned out, he's done quite a bit and his approval ratings are quite good.
I mean, it's Obama man.
He's the best president the country's ever had.
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Tuesday shows that 53% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Obama's job performance. Forty-six percent (46%) disapprove (see trends).
The latest figures include 33% of who Strongly Approve of the way Obama is performing as president and 38% who Strongly Disapprove. This gives him a Presidential Approval Index rating of -8.
