Sycophant of the Month: July 2008

Total number of ProvGov press releases issued in July: 137 (-18 from June)

Total number with the phrase "Williams Government": 5 (-4 from June.)

Sycophancy index: 3.6% (-2.2% from May, do., do.)

The sycophancy index continues its summer plummetation. From a three-month rolling average of over 12% at the start of May, it’s now dipped below 5% for the first time since March.

Not only did the streak of weeks of Williamsgovernmentiness end at 22 weeks in the start of the month, the third week of the month also saw no “Williams Government” releases issued.

And not only that, only five were issued in July at all. Dave Denine opened the scoring, but not until the month was a third over. He was quickly followed by Trevor Taylor and May’s monthly champion Dianne Whalen. Denine pulled into a lead on the 21st, but without an insurance goal, Whalen was able to tie it up, with an assist from Tom Marshall — the closest that Tom, the June monthly winner, would get to scoring in July at all. And Joan Burke, despite her yeowoman’s service to The Regime this past month, remains scoreless since May.

And so it stands, for the first time, a dead heat. Your July Sycophants of the Month: Dave Denine and Dianne Whalen.
