President Obama’s 2014 State of the Union address drew an average of 33.3 million viewers Tuesday night, according to Nielsen.

That is the lowest showing since 2000, when President Clinton’s speech averaged 31.5 million viewers.

Total viewership for the address, which aired live from 6 p.m. to 7:15 p.m. PST on 13 networks and tape delayed on Univision, was down slightly from last year’s. The 2013 State of the Union was watched by about 33.5 million people.

"I want to make sure every American is listening tonight". Uh, no. I "enjoyed" having some ingrown toenails remove without anesthesia instead. Much less painful than listening the that droning on and on and on.

He should have insisted on give it somewhere else and brought back the columns. Maybe had himself loweded from the sky by Marine One. And lots of slave girls OH...yeah and boys swooning at his feet.
