“Why are DL comments dwindling to a four-way circle jerk among the same four contributors?”
...especially when we have more lurkers than ever?
I'll take a crack at it:
It is summer?
Campaigns haven't really started yet?
People are tired of commenting?
Commenting like "planking" had its day in the sun?

It is even rarer that a comment thread generates as much light as it generates heat?
We've turned away the most egregious trolls who could always get counted to start an argument?
What could you say about our do-nothing congressperson LBR, that I haven't already said?
