http://blogcritics.org/ A sinister cabal of superior bloggers on music, books, film, popular culture, politics, and technology - updated continuously. en Copyright 2002-2006 by the authors Mon, 27 Sep 2004 21:46:15 EDT http://backend.userland.com/rss Blogcritics.org custom software http://blogcritics.org/archives/2004/09/27/003925.php#comment-87596 The political bloggers will continue to add their own embellishments to the political chorus long after the election and more than likely feed off of one another until the next frenzy appears. Meanwhile their antics have revealed a bit of the blogscape to many who didn't even know the world existed. For me, that's a plus. In my world few even know what a blog is. They certainly haven't read one. Now, with all the current media talk friends are clicking in to see what I'm doing. The result? More readers. ]]> 87596@blogcritics.org Mon, 27 Sep 2004 21:46:15 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2004/09/27/003925.php#comment-87564 Eric, I disagree. The election alone will provide fodder well into January, what with challenges, cries of "Stolen again!" charges / countercharges and whatnot. But when Bush wins again and the Republicans make some more gains in Congress, it will be front row center for bloggers to watch the vicious immolation of the Democratic Party. The fight will be spectacular and entertaining. Tons of blogging material for some years to come. BTW, I'm still working on that video game mod-music video post, Eric. It's way too long, but I'm making progress. ]]> 87564@blogcritics.org Mon, 27 Sep 2004 19:17:16 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2004/09/27/003925.php#comment-87561 I won't miss the election (unless it turns out unhappily for me). The good part about blogs is that they are diverse, so there will always be something interesting rising to the top of the discussion heap. Personally I hope to get arrested for BWI on election night and then spend a couple of weeks listening to and laughing at the predictable post-mortem punditry from the MSM that has started early this election year. ]]> 87561@blogcritics.org Mon, 27 Sep 2004 19:07:58 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2004/09/27/003925.php#comment-87458 This article sort of made me physically ill: same old shit about the same old people, especially the Wonkette idiot. And excellent point about what's next, Toby, one I have been talking about for months: inevitably the purely political bloggers will decline relatively as interest fades after the election - people will be looking for what else the blogosphere has to offer and what it has to offer is us. ]]> 87458@blogcritics.org Mon, 27 Sep 2004 08:12:06 EDT http://blogcritics.org/archives/2004/09/27/003925.php#comment-87445 There will be months or fodder after Kerry and his minions file lawsuits in 40 of the 50 states, plus one in Guam. ]]> 87445@blogcritics.org Mon, 27 Sep 2004 06:14:19 EDT
