"A bit of a sugar-high..."
That's how Mitt Romney's campaign responded to news this week that a spat of independent national polls have their candidate trailing President Obama by as many as 6 points following the Democratic National Convention.
If Democrats were hocking sweets last weekend in Charlotte, they appear to have sold far better than the sour lemons Republicans were offering in Tampa given the size of their respective post-convention poll bumps, or lack thereof for the Party of Medicare vouchers.
It isn't just the national polls that have team Romney puckered.
