President Obama’s visit to The Tonight Show last night gave the show its best Wednesday ratings in more than two and a half years — though it was down from the last time the President was on. Last night’s show drew a 4.0/10 in metered-market households, the best Wednesday since March 3, 2010, the week Leno returned to host the NBC late-night show. Improving on The Tonight Show’s Wednesday season average by 48%, last night’s show was tied for the fifth-best overnight household rating since Leno’s return. Yesterday’s appearance was Obama’s third since taking office; his October 25, 2011 visit, a Tuesday, got a 4.1/11. That 2011 was the fourth best overnight Tonight has had since March 1, 2010. The President’s numbers last night also surpassed his wife’s last visit with Leno, when she drew a 3.3/8 for an August 13 appearance with Olympian Gabby Douglas. The Tonight Show has been averaging 3.4 million viewers on Wednesdays.

It seems like all the talk shows including the Today Show and Brian Williams went GA GA for the Democrats. Says a whole lot for fair and balance doesnt it????? Just remember be careful what you wish for.
I promise you that Romney could easily get an interview anywhere if he wanted.
Romney pulled out of the View, but his wife went on. She Co-hosted an entire mornung of ‘Good Morning America’. They’ve been on ‘Live’. ABC seems to like him.
What we wish for? Yeah, let’s go back to 2000 to 2008! Let’s have another terrorist attack, 2 horrible wars and a total economic meltdown- or as the Republicans call them: The Good Old Days.
And Mrs. Romney is on with Rachel Ray right now.
Does this guy ever work? For a guy who’s doing his best to keep his seat in office, he sure seems to go out of his way to spend as much time as possible AWAY from that office.
None of them are working right now, less than two weeks before the election, Senators, House members, Washington is close for the next 11 days. Try again later.
Yeah, it’s called going for re-election. You know, that thing you have to campaign for on the campaign trail. You probably think the house and senate are all still dutifully sitting in there offices too. SPOILER ALERT: They aren’t.
He’s campaigning for re-election you nimrod.
And just how does that differ from every other President who’s run for a second term? Or, for that matter, every politician who’s ever run for an additional term? Campaign time is like the week before Christmas – noting gets done because everybody’s thoughts are on what’s yet to come.
Really if you have nothing intelligent to say……
I think it’s OK for Obama to stump for himself two weeks before the election.
But here’s a question: What’s Romney done the last 6 years except campaign? With his hundreds of millions, has he joined a charitable board? (FYI, His dad ran the National Center for Voluntary Action for 18 years.) Did he spend time in inner-city schools helping poor kids get an education? Did he kill Osama bin Laden?
Oh wait, I know who did that.
He’s not a real President – he just plays one on TV.
