"The time your game is most vulnerable is when you're ahead. Never let up."
- Rod Laver, Australian tennis champion
If you're a political junkie, you may enjoy visiting Columbia Journalism Review's new feature, The Campaign Desk. Its editors are using the web to monitor and critique political reporting in real time which I suppose you could say makes it a blog. They're posting some good stuff.
An example for you to consider is Thomas Lang's recent effort, "Kerry: Most Unpopular Kid on the Playground?" Lang has recapped blogger opinions about which of the Democratic candidates is more electable.
Daily Kos says, "...people vote for Kerry not because they are inspired, agree with his policies, or otherwise find him an attractive candidate. They vote for him because they think he is 'most electable'. And that aura is fading."
Lang also posts opinions from CalPundit, Andrew Sullivan, Tapped, and Mark A.R. Kleiman. All are worth a read.
I don't believe either Democrat can beat Bush, nor do I believe Edwards will be able to quell Kerry's momentum. That's a shame, because Edwards would probably fare better against the president than Kerry will.
Take a look at the site. I believe you'll enjoy the commentary enough to stop by more than once.

Thanks for the link! This looks like a pretty interesting blog from a well-respected group. I've added it to my Other Journals list.
