The left wing blogs are still nowhere.<br /><br />In my view I question these results. If you look at how LFF manipulates its number of comments with dubious re-tweeting (are those tweeters real) and the mismatch between its traffic rank and score here I seriously doubt this result is representative. I could not get the figures for Dan Hannan. I can understand Iain getting the advantage as he runs the poll, moving him from his traffic rank to number 2.<br /><br />Iain, in my humble opinion you have a problem.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03696740522845868411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6214838.post-37771475817416962292010-09-21T09:34:58.658+01:002010-09-21T09:34:58.658+01:00Never thought I'd say this, but I'm actual...Never thought I'd say this, but I'm actually very surprised at the way this has turned out! It appears that the Left-wing blogs have started upping their game. There's a lot more of them in the top 20 than beforehand. And people claim this poll is biased because you're hosting it? Hmm... that claim doesn't hold as much water anymore, methinks!<br /><br />Either way, Old Holborn is not going to be a happy man when he sees this. Expect a very sweary post about it in the next few hours.
