New Hampshire GOP debate did very well in overnight ratings

There are a lot of Americans who are fed up with Washington and the Obama administration. That point is yet again exemplified in the ratings for the Republican debate last night in New Hampshire.

Here’s more from the Hollywood Reporter aritcle:

Overnight returns, before the exact audience for the two-and-a-half-hour coverage is available, give the ABC News debate a 9.3 rating among Nielsen’s metered market households. That’s up from both of the January debates, on Fox Business Network (7.4 rating) and Fox News Channel (8.4 rating), the latter of which did not feature an appearance by Donald Trump.

Regardless of how you feel your favorite candidate fared in last night’s debate, you have to be encouraged by the attention and energy surrounding the GOP primary. And when comparing it to enthusiasm on the Democrat side, remember this:
