Roughly 48 hours ago the hardworking staff posted an item about a new web ad from Rick Perry (R-Is the Debate Over Yet?):
At that point the ad had been viewed 1,101 times.
And now?
445,866 views – an average of 9300 an hour since then.
We’ll check it out again in another 24.
Apparently, Perry picked up the impresario who did Pawlenty’s vids, which were viewed as one of his (only) strengths. Still, that seems like a lot of views. Wonder if there’s any chicanery going on, though perhaps the “President Zero” angle has simply caught on among mouth-breathers on GOP mailing lists.
At this point, Brendan, I wouldn’t put anything past anyone.
