It was really hyped up as the only debate that matters. And I guess the 'folks' tuned in...

Drudge this morning claims 55 Million viewed.

FLASH: FIRST DEBATE 37.7 RATING/45 SHARE: PRELIM NUMBERS OVERNIGHTS: NBC WINS COVERAGE WITH 12.2 RATING/17 SHARE, CBS 8.7/12, ABC 8.2/1, FOX 3.6/5... [CABLE RELEASED AT 3 PM ET]... In 2000, NIELSEN estimated live, tape-delayed telecasts of first debate on ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox, Fox News Channel, CNN and MSNBC averaged 31.7 rating/49 share, seen by avg 46.6 million viewers...
