Political Blogging 2.0

The Second Great Age of political blogging is upon us. For those who remember the 2004 race, when blogging was just hitting its stride, you might remember that politicos were the only bloggers acknowledged by anyone in the media. It’s still that way to a large degree, but only one blog, Huffington Post remains in the top 10 blogs in existence, a range that is dominated by tech blogs. Of the Technorati Top 100, only 16 could be deemed “political” blogs, though certainly TreeHugger straddles the political/business fence.

However, the intense Democratic primary season, and the notion that a McCain presidency would signal a continuation of unpopular precedents set by the current administration, has catapulted political blogging back into style.
