Cloture Club’s Best of 2013

2013 has been our biggest year! With over 2.2 million page views (and 843k unique visitors) we thought we'd share our top 10 posts for this year. Our team is made up of incredibly talented people: Arnie Thomas, Andrew Heaton, Sarah Glenn, Shawn Keeley, Agatha Wein, Alex Benedetto, Missy Marsh, Jean Schindler, Lauren Bradshaw, Clay Battin, Zachary Graves, Rebecca Bernbach, Anonymous Hill Staffer, Emily Egan, Mark Bryan, Kenny Ames, Carrie Ann Alford, Mike Lewan, John Hanlon, Jacob Wood and Chris Baggett.


Here is our best of 2013 articles!






One of our most viral posts ever (beating our Muppets in Congress), the Tea Party Insult Generator became a internet sensation. Hours after the government shutdown was over two contributors noticed the tea party turn on Speaker Boehner and let him have it on his facebook wall. A small database was collected and our new star was born.





We challenged our new contributor Agatha to write about the dating scene of DC from a females perspective. And she did just that. Her article went viral netting 50,000 page views in 24 hours. Since then it has been replicated for LA, Miami and Chicago.





Chris Baggett loves his Auburn Tigers and often travels to see them play. Texas A&M recently joined the SEC which had Chris flew out to College Station, TX. He was astonished through the generosity and kindness Texas A&M fans showed him. Chris wanted to share his experience and his article did just that.





Since the 10 DC Guys article did so well, there was a high demand for female version and Agatha did just that.





As a response to Buzzfeed's Things New Yorkers Do, this article had everyone in DC agreeing but refuse to admit.





Phil Buster came outta no where. He wanted to put an article about the truth about the DC Gay scene. We still don't know what NOMA means.





When someone asked Woody if he wanted to goto Adams Morgan, his response was "no." Hence an article was born.





With the success of last year's ugly Christmas Sweater article, we had to update with this years.





In 2012, Woody once realized when he knew where to stand on the platform for the metro doors. He quickly realized he finally became a Washingtonian. How many can you admit to?





As one of the most successful movies this year, Fan Girl Lauren loved Catching Fire. She put together the best 25 scenes in GIF format for everyone to enjoy.
