3. No one called the race right, blog pundits or corporate broadcast
media.

But I totally disagree with your conclusions on the bloggers impact on one critical point. They have been quite influential in disseminating information and helping the public understand what this unelected government is up to. Look at the results of the turnout. I think they have been a big factor in energizing the opposition to get involved.

I'm from Maine and we (my wife and I) are helping to organize our town caucus. We can make a difference and the truth/support we share really helps.
