Ginger was kind enough to email me a link to BlogRunner’s list of Top Authors, which it determines by “counting unique references to articles and posts authored in the last 60 days”. A who’s-linking-who popularity contest, in other words.
I note with great pleasure that it was my two posts on Movie Badness (here and here) that vaulted me to Number Seventeen in (Temporary) Blog Influentialness. That’s even more satisfying than being one notch higher than Howie Kurtz. A talk show, perhaps to be followed by the governorship of a large Western state, is surely in my future.
Chuck,
Do you have a particular western state in mind? You could come back to New York and run against Gov. Pataki (or whoever the Republicans replace him with) in 2006.
I dunno about New York, William. I’m thinking it’ll have to be someplace warm. My blood’s gotten awfully thin after all these years of Texas summers. 🙂
We have our first Republican governor in 40 years out here in Hawai’i; she’ll be running for re-election in 2006. Warm enough? (Oh, and all four of our Federal legislators are Dems; the Dems also hold majorities in both State houses).
