Patrick Hynes examines the roll of blogs in this article from The American Spectator. The big story this past year has been the ability of blogs to take on The Elite Media Monoculture by exposing the lies and fabrications to which they have become addicted in their rage and hate of George Bush and all things Republican. But blogs are also becoming a useful tool for the spread of ideas to specific groups who may not be politically active and who may not read political blogs on a regular basis. The use of blogs which target lifestyle groups that also intersect with specific political issues of interest to them may well be an important development in future campaigns.
