There's a diary over at Kos:
http://www.dailykos.com/story/2006/5/9/135753/5360bragging about how much it has grown and beaten all the RW sites like Freerepublic, LGF, redstate, and so on. But look at the graphs, and you will see a spike at the beginning of 2006. Hmmm . . . now what happened about then? Oh yeah, that would be JK's dKos post as well as his firing up the lib blogs for an attempted Alito filibuster. And let's face it -- a lot of us go look over there and try to comment and post there because JK is doing SO many great things that have to appeal to a lot of the dKos community. And, you know, maybe he'll just show up unannounced and we certainly don't want to miss that!
So whatever -- Kos can take credit for the upsurge in daily use all he wants. But we all know that it was the "Hit Show" John Kerry that allowed them to win the sweeps.
