Hundreds of thousands stood all day yesterday for a day of events, estimates are all over the map as to how many will attend the swearing in but most accounts say millions and millions will either stay home or pause in their day to watch or listen to the ceremony. I have been watching the various new channels coverage of the inauguration. CNN did what was to me a surprisingly to actually excited coverage yesterday.
Obama’s style is described as populist. Michelle Obama describe herself that she doesn’t hesitate. I’m curious, i think Michelle more popular rather than Barack obama, so i try to see it in google trends. I surprised when i see that Barack 10 times more popular than Michelle Obama. I’ve tried to include different name variations when representing the trend and exclude potential false positives to give as accurate results as possible.
