Joe Biden Was the Most Watched Convention Speaker Because
Everyone Thought He Would Be Crazy  Much like how everyone
listens with bated breath when a drunk uncle gives an impromptu
toast at a wedding (Will he make an inappropriate comment about
the couple's sex life? Will he point at the best man and say
something a little bit racist?), so was the nation captivated by
Vice President Joe "Big Fuckin'" Biden at the Democratic
National Convention earlier this month.  In fact, Joe Biden was
the most watched speaker of either convention, according to
Nielson ratings. 14.7% of American homes tuned in to see him—a
full percentage point higher than the number that watched the
number two guy — Barack Obama.  Here's the full breakdown,
courtesy of the New York Daily News:    1. Joe Biden (D), 14.7%
2. Barack Obama (D), 13.7%   3. Mitt Romney (R), 12.5%   4. Bill
Clinton (D), 10.9%   5. Marco Rubio (R), 10.4%   6. Clint
Eastwood (R), 9.9%   7. Michelle Obama (D), 9.6%   8. Julian
