Contrast this against the DNC #'s and you get the viewship of the non-net news watchers. If I can recall, the DNC had just the inverse order of cable news viwship numbers. (ie: CNN, MSNBC then Fox)

Can somone do a count of cable and non cable viewers per Net. and per night DNC-vs-RNC...? Is there data for that sort of thing?

This could be fun!

Too bad you forgot the 12+ million viewers that watched the networks for the dems.

Notice how PMSNBC's Little Ricky (Friend of Bill) Kaplan handles a convention: having his anchor desk situated in front of street riff raff waving "Bush Lies People Die" signs.

After watching the ENTIRE Democratic Convention (to report on it), I sent the word up to Gillespie and others that the Republicans MUST make two changes. 1) Feature live, conservative entertainers. 2) Kill the drone-on speeches by every known office-holder or wanna-be.

Apparently, the Republicans already understood the point that boring is useless. It it ain't entertaining, it doesn't get the audience. If it doesn't get the audience, it can't communicate. That's a very simple equation.

Notice that the Republicans have entertainers up front and center. Also, they've cut the speeches to one-minute -- shades of Trafficant's one-minute wonders on the House floor. The viewer numbers in this thread demonstrate that the better approach is getting better results.

And, as you can see below, I agree with you that Kerry is toast. Dark brown, thoroughly dry, unbuttered, toast.

The thing that makes this all really amazing is the fact that last night's convention coverage was up against the season premiere of Monday Night Football with the Dallas Cowboys and Tennessee Titans.

I think people are actually fired up about George W. Bush, and I think that we're in for a pleasant surprise in November. (okay, maybe it's more "hope" than objective thought!)
