I wish the Republican response started on Monday, not Saturday. CBS, for example, will never preempt college basketball and golf to cover the trial. There will undoubtedly be people who saw the entire prosecution, but will see only part of the defense, at best. Wait until Monday, since the networks have already demonstrated a willingness to preempt regular weekday programming. They would have no excuse to not offer similar coverage to the Republicans.
Hopefully a number of sound bite worthy moments.
. It would not surprise me at all if the networks, even CNN andMSNBC , show far less of the defense. Even when they do cover it,they know how to go to a commercial when something very damaging to Dems is being said.
