Related: About this forumCNN Democratic Town Hall Is Most Watched in Cable News History
?And still we hear America hasn't met the candidates?
It didnt attract debate-level ratings, but CNN saw a good tune-in Monday winning among the cable news networks for its Democratic Town Hall gathering in Iowa.
According to CNN, the 3.2 million makes Mondays town hall the most-watched primary candidates cable news event (excluding debates) on record. By comparison, last nights event drew more than double the demo audience (944,000 vs. 416,000) of MNSBCs recent First in the South Presidential Forum, though that one had the disadvantage of airing on a lighter-watched Friday night.

Watched undercard - Carly Fiorina is an unabashed liar - and Fox never challenges!
Reminds me why I am a Democrat!
I will not watch the NBC creation.

That is, the way Trump wraps himself in the veterans when he doesn't want to got to,a debate -- this is the second time, and both times with a completely fake vets group.
The rest of the media should hang their heads in shame for running so much as a minute of Trump's new fake rally.

I believe an informed electorate is critical for a democracy.
Got to listen to both sides.
Now I can say again with firm conviction, "I would vote for a yella dawg before I'd ever vote for a gawdam Republican!"
