Nielsen reported that 32 million people watched the speech, as compared to 48 million viewers that watched the State of the Union. Ronald Reagan once said you should never confuse the reviews with the box office. This was the box office voting with its clickers.In other words, most people are not interested in what Barack Hussein Obama has to say. If these Nielsen figures are accurate, only about 10% of Americans bothered to tune in.
A third of those politics junkies who found Obama interesting in January no longer find him interesting. He might want to look for a law school deanship, opening in 2012.
