No surprise. It was far more active last year as well, then we took the House. FoxNews ratings are way down as well, as are CNN’s and MSNBC’s. Just wait until next February. It will heat up again. FR was also SO subversive and ahead of its time back in 1998 when I first joined. Now we have SO many imitators, and the internet chat and blog scene has exploded, diluting the time and posts of our members. But make no mistake, we are STILL a force to be rockoned with. And JimRob is a leader above any other. God Bless FreeRepublic!
>>It will heat up again.
That’s what I am afraid of.
It works now. When the server infrastructure gets loaded at busy times, the site bogs down horribly and even crashes. This is probably part of the reason there is less activity here. People give up and go elsewhere.
