slow burner

This is a slow burner for the last week or so of the campaign but I think it's worth 2 or 3 percent for McCain.

can you shed some light into this idiom?
I think Mr. Webb is saying that the issue won't "explode": it won't cause a rapid or significant change, it won't attract a massive amount of attention. It will be a issue, developing , but one that may still win back 2 or 3 percent of the voters.
It looks like it is just that. I appreciate your help.
