Collective Conscious

Num­ber one — ideas:

Mike Pence, the third-​​ranking Repub­li­can in the House, was asked what com­pro­mise he would agree to on health care. His answer, word for word, was: “Well, look, you know, I was, uh, yeah, yeah, look, uh.”

Num­ber two — spon­sors:

Dur­ing the last week and a half, Glenn Beck lost his 100^th, 101^st and 102^nd spon­sors. […] Glenn Beck’s show in the United King­dom has not run any com­mer­cials dur­ing the past three days (Tues-​​Thurs).

I won­der if there is cau­sa­tion in this correlation?
