Come on.. missed out on his audience?? I haven't talked to one person today who didn't sit with anticipation to hear that speech.

Except the 100's of thousands on the East coast that were already in bed?
Sunday night after 11:30 is hardly a prime spot to announce something so major...and yes it most certainly was a hastily called address....hell they had to call all the media from their homes to get to the WH to be able to deliver the news.
But again...I will ask, where is the gain by waiting a week? Who benefitted?
