Presidential hopeful John McCain is beating out Barack Obama in popularity.
McCain’s acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention actually received more television viewers than Obama did last week at the Democratic party’s event.
According to preliminary data from the Nielsen Media Research, McCain’s speech on Thursday ended the night with a 4.8 rating/7 share, as opposed to Obama’s 4.3 /7 average.
We wonder if once all the data comes in, if the numbers will change, but as of right now it seems more people are tuning in to watch McCain.
And according to reports, McCain’s speech pulled in over 26% more viewer’s than Obama’s did.
Do U think McCain is a great speaker? Were you inspired by his words???
Update: It’s confirmed.
Obama got beat by McCain in the TV ratings!
A record 38.9 million U.S. TV viewers watched John McCain accept the Republican nomination for president on Thursday, slightly more than the 38.3 million people who tuned in for Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama’s speech, Nielsen Media Research reported.
Congrats!
