In A Mixed Bag of First Impressions by Democrats at Blog Rendezvous, the NY Times discusses how the politicians courted at the bloggers at YearlyKos, a convention for liberal bloggers held in Las Vegas recently. “Steve Soto, who writes The Left Coaster blog, said that the Democratic leaders running the campaigns to win the House and Senate ‘are still treating the blogs and some of the advice from them about message and focus as unwanted solicitations from crazy relatives.’” I really like that quote.
