Mitt Romneys RNC speech wasnt very impressive, according to a new Gallup poll. Of those surveyed, only 38 percent thought his speech was excellent or goodthe lowest score for a presidential candidates convention speech since Gallup started scoring them in 1996. Last weeks convention had the second-lowest amount of viewers of all eight conventions since 1996. Americans relatively weak reaction to the Republican convention does not appear to have hurt their likelihood of voting for Romney so far, although it apparently is related to the lack of a typical convention bounce, Gallup said.
