This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

    It's a shame that a man like Sen. Hagel is retiring, we could use about 60 men like him in the Senate!

          Mrs. Hagel must be off a little.
          Why would anyone in their right mind vote for Barack Hussein Obama?
          A worshipper of Racist Reverend Wright for over 20 years.
          A neighbor, friend and associate of a Weathermen terrorist/ bomber/murderer.
          A man that wants to be president but refuses to criticise top racist Farrakhan. 
          A man with only 143 hours of senate experience and a poor voting record.
          A man with a known racist wife whose background is constant anti "Whitey". Can you imagine her as "First Lady"? Oh my God.
          A man who is #3 on donations from the rotten CEO's of Fannie May and Freddie. This was a rotten program to help corrupt enough senators  to squelch an investigation of the accounting books of these two organizations. 
          A media darling who has a gift of gab, lots of smoke and mirrors but no substance.
          A man like Clinton in that he has no good things to say about our military and can count on very few votes from this fine group of men and women. 
          Someone has to steer Mrs. Hagel to a  medical facility for proper treatment of her illness.

            I agree one hundred percent with #5. obama is a bad choice and by the way, who the hell is Mrs. hagel anyhow and who cares who she votes for?

            oh yeah, I remember that nixon got in on a landslide and look what happened to him. obama is just like kennedy and look what happened to him. I  say the media will soft soap obama for a long time should he get in, but at some point the truth about him will come out. america is being shafted.

              Perhaps Mrs. Hagel is putting HER country over party loyalty this time!  For anyone to seriously claim that Gov. Palin is qualified to be the vice-president and, if necessary, the president of this country, has to be either hopelessly ignorant or wilfully blinded.  The scariest quality of Gov. Palin, for me, is the fact that she apparently believes that she is qualified!   Any respect that I had for the judment of Sen. McCain evaporated when he made the announcement of his choice of running mate.  My greatest fear is that their mudslinging may detract enough voters to succeed.

              I agree with draz!  Senator McCain could die in office - he is an old man and our president would be Ms. Palin.  A woman who cannot debate her way out of a bag!  She keeps pointing out OBAMA is linked to terrorists, but she does not seem to remember that she is t around the same age as Obama and there is no way at the age of 6 they were workng with the Weather Underground or any domestic terrorist.  Ayers has turned his life around in Chicago and supported Obama - big deal - there are bad guys out there supporting McCan't , too - ex KKK radicals, etc.  We have to do what is best for our country - four more years of Republican leadership and a possible Palin Whitehouse or Obama. 
              Vote OBAMA!

                Wonderful! I'm certain it was difficult for her to buck the GOP establishment and follow her conscience to support Obama.  Cheers & regards to you Mrs. Hagel!
