I rarely look at Clown Posse but as folks were talking a look at it tonight I took a look around. This poster, Columbo, did a FANTASTIC job compiling stats on Free Republic registrations and posting. It's obvious from his data that FR is vastly inflating their membership numbers. We all assume this (I think) but it's great to see it backed up by solid research. Some of you might find this interesting or enjoyable to contemplate:

I don't think FR makes it money from those "drives." I doubt most of the posters left are smart emough to have any money to donate. I've thought for years they get their funding from the GOP, which is why RimJob pretty much follows the Republican line.

I've seen several articles about the GOP launching new campaigns using "cyber space". Here is one example:

They never say exactly where or how, but I assume FR plays into it heavily. The campaign laws might not permit a big direct donation, I not sure how these work hee, but it wold be easy for the GOP to get a bunch of shills to sign up and contribute.

I know RimJob's in a wheelchair, although I have forgotten why. Whatever the reason, someone's got him over a barrel. If he's doesn't do what they want, he can kiss off all those big bucks. Then where's he going to be?
