Right-Wing Bloggers Leave Their Stain On The Campaign
Four years ago to the month, right-wing bloggers were basking in the glow of their CBS Memogate caper. Fast-forward to the autumn of 2008, and the same bloggers are almost unrecognizable in terms of their shrinking clout.
Right-wing bloggers have been reduced to playing small ball. And even then, they're prone to Little League bloopers. Last week was a perfect example of how the conservative blogosphere's leading lights have been demoted to ridicule, simply because their efforts have become so thoroughly laughable.
