This is complete and utter stupid bullshit that means nothing, but for those of you who haven't heard, Google put up an archive of their searching index from 2001 to commemorate their anniversary. It is very fun to play around and see how today's notable terms in 2008 would fare in 2001. If one types in Sarah Palin with quotes, however...
See link: http://www.google.com/...
There is literally not a single result for "Sarah Palin" with quotes.
But Sarah Palin Alaska shows what the mayor was up to in Wasilla: http://www.google.com/...
For comparison, our candidate gets around 600, Biden more, McCain more, etc.
She was quite an unknown.
Again, totally useless stupid bullshit, but instructive in some ways, spread the word it's fun:
