TV Ratings for McCain's Acceptance Speech Beat Obama's.......

Wow.....

Presidential candidate John McCain's acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention drew more television viewers than his rival Barack Obama attracted at the Democratic party's event last week, according to preliminary ratings from Nielsen Media Research.

Across all broadcast networks Thursday, Sen. McCain’s speech ended the night with a 4.8 rating/7 share, compared to Sen. Obama’s 4.3/7 average, according to overnight numbers from metered households in 55 U.S. markets measured by Nielsen. These ratings are preliminary, however, and are subject to change.

I'm surprised the networks didn't have a "technical difficulty" during that speech.

Anyone notice CNN kept focusing in on the guy holding the "McCain votes against vets" sign? They must have focused on him 5 times.
