Some 25.3 million Americans watched Obama's speech on Wednesday, which was broadcast live on nine U.S. television networks, ratings company Nielsen said on Thursday.Let's contrast that with December 2009.
President Obama got to make his case on Afghanistan to a lot of people -- 40.8 million, his largest television audience since a Feb. 24 address to a joint session of Congress.Damn, it's almost like somebody saw this coming.
This according to ratings from the Nielsen Company, which noted that Obama's prime-time address Tuesday was carried by 10 broadcast and cable networks.
These numbers were actually even worse than his speech on Libya three months ago when that "conflict" was going to be wrapped up in 72 hours or something.
