Earlier this week, I wrote about turning off the Obama State of the Union just after tuning in; it was just too much to have to listen to Obama prattle on about envy and class warfare. The ratings information shows that I was not alone. According to the minute by minute ratings now available from Kantar Media (which has over 100,000 set top boxes across the country), fully 27% of the audience changed the station away from Obama during the first five minutes of the speech. That's right, more than a quarter of those who tuned in gave up almost immediately once Obama launched into the usual nonsense. It is a staggering figure, but one I truly understand.
A hat tip goes to Steve Brill for sending me the ratings info.
