The Bounce and the Jobs Report

This is one blog.  One perspective.  I'm looking for other perspectives on the post-DNC bounce.

In addition, to what extent will the latest jobs report affect Obama's ratings?

Again, one blog, one perspective.  Your job is to seek out and find evidence that both supports and refutes Nate Silver's take on election politics.

What does the information you read and consider tell you about bias in the media?  

How can citizens find the information they need to be informed and make purposeful decisions about their government?

Why does it matter?
