Sign of "apathy"?
I check the sitemeter stats every day, mostly to see whether anyone at all is reading. Usually the answer is no, except for predictable random stuff and the useless clicknapper links. I'm not surprised by this any more.
What does surprise me this season: Nobody is even looking for comments about Romney. I've said some thoroughly nasty things and cartoons about him this year, which should come up easily in searches for "romney vulture". Nope, not one indication of a search.
Wasn't the same in 2008. I said some equally nasty things about Manchurian Candidate McCain, Ho's favorite ho. Those things were noticed by searchers, in an expectable quantity.
Has all the political discussion moved to Twitter? Or is everyone robotically locked into the two "parties", with no need to see any positive or negative comments? If the latter, both "parties" are wasting a lot of money on advertising. ¶ 4:56 PM
