the overnights are in

via thereisnospoon's diary at mlw, we find that the dem debate on cnn outdrew fox noise's repubbb gab-fest:

the numbers from the democratic debate are over at media bistro:

debates: dems get 2.78 million viewers on cnn; most-watched debate yet
cnn's democratic debate averaged 2,783,000 million total viewers on sunday night -- "more than any other presidential debate of this election season," the network notes.

now, while it is true that the fox news gop debate garnered 2.55 million viewers, it is also true that fox news' ratings as a whole are higher than any other news network (though their numbers are in decline), which makes the comparison somewhat akin to the proverbial apples and oranges.

according to drudge, on the other hand, last night's gop debate received a scant 1,974,000--a comparative deficit of 809,000 viewers.

So the American people are less put off by the Democrats than they are by the Republicans. Big deal. The Dems sucking less means the Dems still suck.

The American ideal is dead. Long live the presidential pageantry...
