I'm sure it did. Problem is, the GOP is 'never' as high as the democrat side. Ever! If a poll shows both at 40% for example, a conservative is less likely to participate in that poll so you are looking at numbers that are under-representing for the Republican side. Always.
Its most telling portion is that people were not happy with the choices up to that point. Palin was the perfect ingredient to boost things like I've never seen before in a Repub convention (and I've been watching them a long time!)
