The Classic Liberal Blog

The blogger everybody on the right should be reading, R.S. McCain, gave away his secret to success, writing "How to Get a Million Hits on Your Blog in Less Than a Year!" He's smart.

When I learn something smart, I do my best to put it into action (well that, and I'm a Capitalist Pig who likes traffic).  So today, I present to you Emilie de Ravin, hosting the official launch of Rule 5 Saturday at theCL!

Rule 5: Everybody Likes a Pretty Girl!

It's not just guys who enjoy staring at pictures of hotties. If you've ever picked up Cosmo or Glamour, you realize that chicks enjoy looking at pretty girls, too. (NTTAWWT.) Maybe it's the vicious catty she-thinks-she's-all-that factor, or the schadenfreude of watching a human trainwreck like Britney Spears, but no one can argue that celebrity babes generate traffic. Over at Conservative Grapevine, the most popular links are always the bikini pictures. And try as I might to make "logical arguments" for tax cuts, wouldn't you rather watch Michelle Lee Muccio make those arguments?

Btw ... Donald Douglas has proven himself the master of Rule 5. Check out his post on the real Daisy Duke!

I'm not in the mood for politics right now, so here's some interesting tid-bits about the lovely Emilie de Ravin.  And pictures of course!
