Obama vs. Clinton

What does this say about our Web visitors?

According to Michael Grossman, our Web content guru, stories about Obama's visit here have been among the most read headlines every day. (It's No. 2 today.) The news yesterday that Clinton is coming to Winston barely cracked the Top 20. (It's 19.)

Of course, her visit is to Winston, not Greensboro, and the story was posted in the afternoon, so it didn't get a full day's traffic.

Does that mean that Obama has more support here? More support among our Web users? Readers automatically went to the Journal's site? Maybe supporters who know how to get a story about their candidate on the "most viewed" list?

It'll be interesting to see if Bill Clinton's visit Friday gets more traffic that Hillary's.

Of course, putting it into perspective, the story that is No. 1 to Obama's No.2? Gibsonville Police are looking for a woman who shot and wounded her live-in boyfriend after an argument Monday night.
