			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://ericodom.blogivists.com/files/2008/08/stumble.jpg" align="left" alt="StumbleUpon" />Much to my surprise, StumbleUpon has referred almost 20,000 visits to my <a href="http://ericodom.blogivists.com/2008/07/28/ultimate-libertarian-quote-list/">Ultimate Libertarian Quotes List</a>. And it&#8217;s not slowing down either. In fact, I&#8217;m still getting about 4,000 visits per 24 hour period.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve had a few pages Stumbled before, but never like this. Not even close. It got me thinking&#8230; &#8220;are most Stumblers like me?&#8221;.</p>
<p>I Stumble a lot myself. I probably spend at least a half hour every day Stumbling, sometimes more. The three things I love the most are lists, images, and anything to do with Libertarianism. One of the reasons I got into Stumble is because there was so much pro-freedom content available and it seemed, unlike Digg, that the Stumble crowd was very non-partisan. Or at least, not into party politics.</p>
<p>While the assertion made in the title is purely an educated guess and contains no statistical data, 20,000 visits from StumbleUpon is a pretty big deal. And apart from a few comments and emails that seem to believe Democrats somehow represent Libertarian values, most of the comments and e-mail I got from that post were very much in support of true American liberty. </p>
<p>This tells me that a huge segment of Stumblers enjoy lists and are not in favor of the current two party system.</p>
<p>That makes me proud to call myself a Stumbler.  <img src='http://ericodom.blogivists.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
