"Traffic from the Drudge Report is gigantic. ...178 million visits in November"

Let's put that into perspective. Say that there are Drudge fans who visit the site once every day. Divide 178 million by 30 (days in a month), and you have roughly 6 million people. That's about 4% or 5% of the people who voted in the last election. My point? That even a popular conservative site like Drudge doesn't affect a large percent of the population.
