I added info about the number of viewers (If you listen the the Rush Limbaugh show then you would have heard him talk about the ratings, and the reasons for them). I believe this is important info that shows what peoples feel about the movie, I think it show that people just want to get over the entire thing and move forward.--Archer5054 (talk) 10:48, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks, this is a useful article. I tweaked it a bit to add the point made about ratings on Memorial Day being traditionally lower. Also, it is beyond the scope of the Wikipedia to draw conclusions about what ratings mean - unless you have a source to back it up. -Classicfilms (talk) 05:12, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
- I think there needs to be more on how the film received criticism at the time of relief for being told from the point of view of Democrats. I've seen this film a lot lately, as it is played over and over again before Election Day, and it struck me that the movie definitely has that trait. --Stetsonharry (talk) 12:34, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Ron Klain Movie Commentary =
[edit]Ron Klain claimed in the commentary to the movie that all Florida counties were counting before the Supreme Court stopped them. This is not true. Matt2h (talk) 20:35, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
Cast listing too exhaustive
[edit]The cast list section seems unduly lengthy and in need of some pruning. 20:14, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
