Barack against John McCain

By Peter A. Gloor on May 31, 2008 3:57 PM
While the race - not just on the Web, see picture below - seems pretty much over for Hillary, John McCain and Barack are pretty close. In fact, today (May 31, 2008), John just got a boost (see line graph today).


Zooming in on the social network of Web sites, John is really popular in Texas. The biggest blue circle in the picture is the McCain Texas Web site, boosted by other Republican Web sites, helping him to beat Barack, at least for today and on the Web.

Time is running out for Barack Obama

When I checked the Condorview blog buzz scores of the three presidential candidates this morning, thinks looked really bad for Barack Obama. The damage done by the inflammatory remarks of his (former) pastor Jeremiah Wright really undermined his standing in the blogosphere. His score (in blue) has never been as low since I started tracking him in March. While scores of all three candidates went down, in relative terms, Hillay seems to rebound (light brown).


On the Web buzz level, Barack still is leading (as in the polls in the "real world"), but the Blogs point the way. Drastic action needed now!

  • The MIT association is very reassuring, their approach was very methodical, confident, patient, helpful and encouraging. Outstanding team, focused, conceptually easy, quick at negotiating time and delays, great class, simple and user friendly despite the complex systems.
    Maggie Palazzolo, Research Coordinator
  • Excellent experience overall. Correspondence was kind, fast and helpful mostly via email; we suggested new features as needed and they were added quickly.
    Daniel Oster, Assistant to the CEO
  • There are many others who say they can do similar things, but I don't think they are actually capable. GalaxyAdvisors is different because many others don't use the social network methodology to learn what people are talking about.

  • Very Unique. There are no others like them! We trust galaxyadvisors and feel that relationship is critical, as we are not social network analysis experts and need their help and understanding.
