As of right now, the name "Thomas Eagleton" appears on Google News 298 times. I don't have the historical data handy, but I'm going to guess that search didn't escape single digits at any time since the aggregator was introduced in 2002.
UPDATE: Oops, I was wrong- there was a brief spike in March 2007 when- you guessed it- Eagleton died.
