Loved this bit:

The former secretary of state was the only one on stage Saturday night who looked like she could step into the presidency tomorrow. Her knowledge on foreign policy -- from ISIS to Syria and beyond -- was significantly greater than her rivals, and it showed. (ABC moderator Martha Raddatz was the only one on stage confident enough in her own knowledge of foreign policy to go after Clinton.)

I could have predicted he'd announce her as the winner.

He lied about Sanders in prior article.

Why do you consider Chris Cillizza a "Hillary-hater"?

("Sensible Liberal" is a term from Tom Tomorrow's "This Modern World" cartoons for liberals who respond to radical Republicans in a milquetoast way.)

Going back to 2008 when he said that Hillary's brand of beer would be known as "Mad Bitch Beer". He's only gotten worse since then.

"Cillizza and Dana Milbank appeared in a series of humor videos called Mouthpiece Theater, which appeared on the website of The Washington Post. An outcry followed a video in which, during a discussion of the White House "Beer Summit", they chose new brands for a number of people, including "Mad Bitch Beer" for Hillary Rodham Clinton. Both men apologized for the video and the series was canceled.[4]"

I read a post early this morning about awesome online polls results:

I did some researched based on my intuition and posted this:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1251&pid=927329

I got the same response as you did:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1251&pid=927705

So I guess this is the standard response even in the face of evidence.

Creating the Link Bait

Okay, so let's establish another point: the content is the most important element of link baiting. It's the "bait" in the link bait. Don't waste time trying to figure out what the latest new type of linkbait is or use cheap tricks - it's all about content. Poor content does not get shared, does not go viral, does not attract links. So given how important content is to your campaign's success, it's critical you devote the bulk of your time, energy and resources to developing your "bait."

Great link bait can come in many different forms, but here are some link bait ideas to get you started:

Infographic
News Piece
Video
Controversial Topic
Quiz
Poll
Interview


I still get sucked in by those stupid quizzes What is your super hero name? (Cobalt Fire, Savior of The Blue Team) Who is your celebrity boyfriend in another dimension? (Jon Stewart ) Will you die a crazy cat lady? (YES!) But I know better than to click on a stupid poll.

And, as if that wasn't bad enough, DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz (Fla.) had to sit stone-faced -- with a camera trained on her! -- while Sanders excoriated the party committee over its handling of the data breach. Awkward.


Sounds about right.
