As an experienced yahoo commenter, the pattern is this … when liberals like Obama are in power, conservative comments rise to the top. I remember when bush was in power, it was liberal comments that rose to the top. Also troll comments get a lot of attention so there are a ton of people who say over the top conservative stuff just to get a rise out of people.
