Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan continue to draw smaller TV crowds than the 2008 Republican Party duo of John McCain and Sarah Palin. The grand finale of this year’s Republican National Convention featuring Presidential candidate Romney’s acceptance speech and an introduction by Clint Eastwood drew a total of 25.3 million viewers last night from 10-11 PM on ABC, NBC, CBS, Fox News Channel, CNN and MSNBC. That was down 31% from the final hour of the 2008 GOP convention. This has disturbed Mark Levin so much he's asking for explanations from his listeners.
FAUX News didn't take much of a hit (-2%) but all the other channels got smacked. I suspect this means a few things:
1) Mitten$ isn't very popular;
2) Most people don't like today's Bagger GOP;
3) Some Baggers were pissed off about the attempt on Tuesday to limit their future influence in the RNC. This was something Mark Levin also whined about;
4) Paul Ryan is NOT the answer.

"
re Obama being “weak” and also vastly strengthening the royal power of the presidency. No real contradiction here: Obama is a lawyer for his constituency, his campaign contributors. He is acting on behalf of the neocons and Wall Street in creating oligarchic power to take over government, and imperial power abroad. Oligarchies like factotums for presidents. That’s why they overthrew the kings in Rome. They accused Superbus of the rape of Lucretia, only so that they could rape all Roman society by preventing any royal power able to check their own takings of land and reduce the population to debt bondage."
