A quick tour of the latest online video hits confirms that campaign season is over. Election videos, especially those about the presidential race, have ranked among the top clips at Viral Video Chart for weeks, if not months. Check the Top 20 for the past 30 days to get a sense of what the chart looked like until a few days ago. Not all of them are serious news, but most of them soared to the top because of their political nature. Now look at today's Top 10. The subjects:

• Gmail
• A Toshiba advertisement
• A creative a cappella tribute to "Star Wars" composer John Williams
• A dance scene from "Twin Peaks"
• A clip of Joe Biden in the vice-presidential debate
• Two foreign-language music videos and a preview of a third video
• A fascinating snapshot of ancient Rome via Google Earth
• A Keith Olbermann rant about gay marriage

Out of 10 videos, only two are remotely political and one of those is outdated. Why is a clip of Biden bashing McCain in the vice-presidential debate still floating around the Web? Ed Morrissey hit the online nail on the head yesterday when he asked, "What will we do without campaign ads?"  The answer: Travel electronically back in time to ancient Rome.
