7. Think all the C-Spans will do it? I have C-span Senate and House, but not C-Span itself.

18. Here's a link to C-SPAN live channels. If you have broadband, it might be worthwhile?

5. I checked their line-up in the guide and they listed all the regular shows. Nothing saying
they were carrying the speech. Mayeb they just forgot to block it out in the grid?

15. Oooooooh, you lied to us. Shame on you.
You clearly stated "nt" in your subject line, but there is text where you claimed there would be none.

Lyonn? more like lie-onn.

14. MSNBC
Tweety Is off again.After the speech Keith,then rachel,and then Ed will be on.And this means the only
time they will have Buchanen will be during rachel,and even that may not happen.Hopefully one of them
will have Dean on.He was on the O/Donnell hosted Hardball unfortley Buchanen was there too.If he Is on
rachel she will let him talk but will respond to his BS.

24. CNN for the speech itself, because I get it in hi-def...........
then switching to MSNBC for the post-speech analysis.

30. To be honest I am almost afraid to watch because I'm afraid of being disappointed.
I would love to believe that I will be proud and inspired, and if that happens I think I will be pleasantly surprised. Prepare for the worst, hope for the best, but without high expectations because I know he won't want to upset anyone or derail the bipartisan applecart that is moving along so well. Republicans will gladly accept all compromises and concessions and then all vote against any healthcare reform bill that will change anything in a meaningful way.

If I watch it will probably be PBS since I don't have cable.

31. I know what you mean. I am a little nervous too, but holding out hope that
it will turn out really good and win some people over.
