Mitt Romney announced Paul Ryan as his vice-president pick last Friday which led to a flurry of coverage (is it just me or did this announcement come out of nowhere? I thought there was usually more of a build before an announcement like this but maybe I’m just not paying attention.)
At any rate, MetaFilter has a lengthy discussion of the pick which also contains dozens of links analysing every possible aspect of what this pick could mean. But at 755 comments (as I write this), they’re still a long ways off the 5555 comment monstrosity that erupted when Sarah Palin was picked four years ago – still a MeFi record for most comments in a thread I think and almost twice the number of comments submitted for the next longest one.
