		<description>&lt;p&gt;like this article mentions, "it doesn't record positive or negative press". Hillary Clinton gets more press just because of who she is. George Bush has 1000% more press than anyone of these candidates and yet he is the most hated person in the world probably. I have a feeling all or most of all of Obama's was good news, and more recently, Hillary's news is all about her defrauding her comic book friends as mentioned on digg, etc.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;hopefully the elections in 2008 don't come down to the BS it did in 2004...&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;[...] Two months ago, Blog P.I. ran searches on the names of the top-contending 2008 presidential candidates through the Trend Tool at blog search engine Icerocket to see how often a candidate&#8217;s name appeared in blog posts over the previous month. Because we aren&#8217;t counting the positive or negative mentions, this won&#8217;t tell us how popular or unpopular a candidate may be &#8212; but it does give a pretty good idea how intense is the interest in a particular candidate relative to the others.

		<description>&lt;p&gt;[...] It also underscores earlier observations that Republicans don&#8217;t have an online game like the Democrats. The reason for that probably has a lot to do with the fact that in 2004 there was no Republican scrum and hence no proving ground for online Republican strategists. Mike Turk, Patrick Ruffini and Mindy Finn got their feet wet during Bush-Cheney &#8216;04 and All picked up a Senate campaign in 2006, but so far GOP strategists haven&#8217;t had the same kinds of opportunities as Democratic strategists.
