Remember this:

McCarthy's hearings were in the news. And Welch destroyed him.

Contrast with a Google search for news about Durbin in the last week (90% of Googlers probably never restrict the time).

https://www.google.com/search?tbs=qdr:w&q=durbin&tbm=nws&source=lnms&fbs=AIIjpHxU7SXXniUZfeShr2fp4giZrjP_Cx0LI1Ytb_FGcOviEm1ssuPGpLt-JO6rIVBYz_RaN6fYAxw4hlG5yEN69ihL6ViXWBlqUIGcVQZBx-NZcf8bEvYnTgIdnLz0QkXsyKIJVjZn-CtPAHu2acFa8ZuZRM6RBwbioUOwS4abadZ0uQryriAvLOSOvhM3521mxNtbX2A0niYpTrzMqRFKBkrLGNktWA&sa=X

A bunch of noise about Catholic bishops reacting to some award in the first few pages.

Even searching for videos, you have to know to look for that video. The first hit is a Facebook link, 6th or 7th from the top, with 4,800 views. The Forbes version you cited had 142K views. Respectable, but hardly viral.
