(Promoted for another showing here on New Year's Eve. - promoted by Clem Guttata)

The year is drawing a close and it's once again time to unveil the most viewed diaries of the year. According to our site logs, these are the diaries written in the past year that got the most page views.

It really is a group effort here. There's eight different writers on this list and I can think of another handful of people who also made substantial contributions this past year.

2nd most viewed? Wow! (4.00 / 1)
I am surprised and honored. Most of all, I am very grateful that Dolph Santorine was defeated by the Third District voters.

By the way, Mr. Santorine outspent every other House of Delegates candidate in the entire State... nearly $90,000 ($86,000 of which was from his own pocket). That's approximately $10/vote.
