In short, the actual number is somewhere in between 800,000 and 7,500, and we have no way of knowing it for certain. As such, I think that it would probably be best not to speak about "Google Hits", or at least, not to give an exact number, as there is no way of doing it without gross inaccuracies.

By the way, I found an article that states that the term "Hollywood Values" was created by ''Times'' columnist Maureen Dowd; this might be worth a look. http://www.aft.org/newspubs/periodicals/ae/fall2007/sewall.cfm

While the term originally related specifically to northern politicians interjecting themselves into the politics of the Reconstruction-era south, it has since come to be used for political opportunists in a more general sense. Since this sort of behavior is common among Democrats (Hillary Clinton, anyone?) I'd argue that the term has value as a conservative word. --[[User:Benp|Benp]] 12:52, 19 July 2010 (EDT)
