Michael Calderone reports that Daily Kommisar Markos Moulitsas, giving Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama grief over their appearances on Fox News, said:

“You think if I started taunting McCain he’d go on Daily Kos? Of course not.”

On a typical evening, O’Reilly reaches about 2.5 million people. The Daily Kos’s real readership is difficult to know: Site Meter reports that the average per day is about 900,000 visitors — but also says that the average length of a visit is one second. (Q: How much Daily Kos can be read in one second? A: Enough.) Alexa suggests that Daily Kos, like most political blogs, has a readership that hovers around the size of websites belonging to typical metro newspapers.

So Hillary has a lot more to gain by going on Fox than McCain — or anybody else — has to gain by going on Kos. Mr. Moulitsas, who manifestly wishes in the most desperate way to be a kingmaker, is suffering from an acute case of hubris.
