Dont think so as the programme on before it on FOX got over 10m which is less than what Simpsons got.

Homer was trying to vote for Obama and they made it be like all the voting machine things were fixed for Mc cain to recieve more votes....
Loads of republicans went nuts because Homer Simpson wanted to vote for Obama... funny.

If Obama was in it, wouldn't it get more viewers than 12 million? :conf2: xx
