Valdis Krebs updates his political book map

Last year, Valdis showed graphically that people who bought books with a left-leaning view tended not to buy books with a rightward tilt. Now he's updated the picture. The shape is the same, only the individual books have changed. Valdis writes:
So, if you are working a 2004 political campaign what do you do with this information? Obviously you will not be successful in removing a reader from deep in one cluster and transplanting them into the other cluster. All you can do is focus on the edge nodes and the bridges. See someone reading Sleeping with the Devil? That is someone you can talk to about your candidate.
