Chatter Ranking Graphs

Charting the chatter for the past two years, we can see that Democrats have a decided advantage in coverage. Overall, they've gotten 58% of all the stories I've tracked; since May 2006. Coverage has shifted more towards Democrats in the past year - and has grown tremendously at the same time, spiking with the candidacy announcements in January and diminishing somewhat since then. The pace should begin to pick up in a couple months as the Iowa Straw Poll (in Ames, August 19, 2007) nears.

why on earth would you use red to indicate democrats and blue to indicate republicans?

Other than that, they're pretty good.
