St Paul RNC most watched convention ever

A report at the link below says:

The Republican National Convention in St. Paul, Minnesota was the most watched convention ever.

As for the speeches of the presidential candidates, it was a draw.

As a television draw, John McCain was every bit the equal of Barack Obama.

An interesting comparison - McCain did it without renting an 80,000 seat arena and without a big-name band, styrfoam ‘Barackopolis’ pillars (shown below) and fireworks.
