Hurt a little, but overall not much impact. No speech at a convention is ever going to have much effect on the results other than the nominee's speech itself, and even the impact of that is a bit overrated.

Hubert Humphrey disagrees.

Riots outside a convention are a little different than speeches inside the convention. Smiley

But even then, I don't think the overall impact on the final results was that dramatic.
