it's simple. see the link below. http://blogs.reuters.com/mediafile/2008/10/23/huffington-post-top-indy-political-blogs-for-traffic/ Arianna Huffington, as cronie as she is, has executed a web strategy for politics unanswered by the right to this date. That link shows that FR saw a decline month over month in traffic while Huffingtonpost leapfrogged drudge and FR. she does it by linking web 2.0 sites to hers as shown below: As mentioned previously, the internet is evolving, our base is strong, so my recommendation is we adapt our strategies to expand our influence.

I don't want to have anything to do with a plan that purports to help us compete with the Huffington Post and other similar leftist sites. If Free Republic is going to go down this road, I want no part of it.

If this digg.com site appears at the top of FR again, I will quit this site.

BTW, i clicked bury on every item that seemed the least bit off the wall to me—which all huffington’s did and 99.9% of the Obama stuff and anti McCain/Palin stuff did.
