Bloggers & The Parties

Incidents like this continue to fuel my belief that liberal bloggers need to really think of their role as journalists/commentators and get over the activist thing. Yes, the GOP infrastructure is clearly more advanced than the DNC’s, but at some point you have to just let the party be the party and do your work from the outside. Republicans benefit from having conservative voices in the media that they can rely on, but ones who are not just adjuncts of the party. This also helps in the offseason because you’d think liberal bloggers are dead in the mid-election years.
