I'd be curious to see the historical numbers on that. I would think whichever speech is 2nd gets some level of help simply for being 2nd. After a week of convention talk and the talking-head-gasm that follows the first acceptance speech is certain to drum up more interest in what's to follow.

I don't know, you jerk-wad! I take back my oops. McCain CRUSHED Obama drawing over 10% more viewers! Admit it and that OBAMA is DOOMED!

(Posting this right after I posted #1842 in the "yes we can" thread....just a little joke....and yes, I know my math was off)

That's okay, Scaeagles- you're the reason they created NCLB.:evil:;)

I think it's because McCain's speech came right after a football game so a lot of people already had their TV sets on.

The Ninth Circuit Court is notorious among talk radio listeners for being horribly liberal.

By the way The Daily Show was again great tonight (covering the last day of the RNC). The reporters all went into the arena and asked everyone what "small town" meant since that seems to be the theme for the Republicans.

[Now if you ask me, I think "small town" is code for "White Church-Going Protestants" but...]

Across the board people seemed to say, "Well, a small town is where marriage is between a man and a woman." So apparently gay people aren't allowed to live in small towns. Or they don't make them that way there. Uh-huh.

What does "small town" mean when Biden says it then(and he says it a lot)???

Something completely different, obviously.

Heh heh....just ran across this at the Huffington Post blog: ( NSFW- a wee bit o' foul language)
