Traffic, after all, is never consistant. I do think there are some ad programs that are pay per view, but there needs to be a better "ratings" system for those to be profitable. Commisions are a good deal if you get the right traffic. CCbill adult sites pay ok. I have toyed with having local business advertise, you know doing the foot work and having a blog specific to an area (New York) and going to the local bodega or what ever and telling them they could get a a banner for cheap. But as for the "YouTube" election, remember the netroots haven't elected a big name candidate yet and the righty blogs favorites are all out of the race. The MSM picked the Republican and Democrat candidate so they can prove, without numbers, that they are still the only game in town.
