NFL Football is on tonight and IMHO it was more important to have the lineup last night they had before Gov Palin spoke. At 9:00 cdt, the networks went to the speeches so Rudy and Gov Palins went out all over the Country. Two red meat speeches.
Tonight the networks wont pick up coverage until after the football game and then only for Sen McCains speech.
Totally forgot about that when I wrote my post. You're right. It was a smart move.
