This is SCARY!. We all need to vote for the Weblog Awards ASAP!
Best Blog

In First Place so far: Little Green Footballs (makes Free Republic look like The ACLU) has 11,087 votes.
In second place so far: Daily Kos with 10,395 votes

In a very distant third place: InstaPundit with 2,244 votes.

Guys, Daily Kos is the only blog positioned to beat LGF for first place.

This needs our vote!

3. I'm voting Little Green Footballs as "Best Conservative Blog."
Edited on Thu Dec-14-06 01:13 PM by IanDB1
Because I think those Nazi assholes deserve to be held up as an example of what the conservatives truly are.

LGF is in first place with 4,467 votes.
Ace of Spades is second with 2,167 votes.

19. Excellent idea, I'm with you
The sad thing is, they're blowing the competition away, 5004 to the nearest competitor, Ace of Spades, with 2350.

6. We need to also vote against the gay log cabin blog
http://2006.weblogawards.org/2006/12/best_lgbt_blog.php

Right now, it's neck-and-neck betwenn Pam's House Blend, and the "Gay Patriot" Log Cabin Nazi.
http://2006.weblogawards.org/2006/12/best_lgbt_blog.php

The only way of beating The Gay "Patriot" is to all vote for Pam's House Blend.

8. Need help in my category too
My little personal poliblog, The Impolitic, is a finalist for a Wizbang weblog award in the Best of the 2501-3500 blogs. I'm the only real Lefty blog on the list.

Wizbang as you know, is a conservative site so I'm not going to get any drive-by votes there and two of my conservative competitors, http://bubbleheads.blogspot.com/ and http://massbackwards.blogspot.com/ are currently kicking my butt in the voting.

Through shameless blegging, I've managed to move into a solid third place and I don't care so much for myself but I'd really like to win this one for Leftopia. But the two conservative guys have much bigger readerships than I do. They're way ahead by about 600 votes and I need an 11th hour miracle to pull this off. I'd love to pull off an 11th hour win to demonstrate the power of the Left.

If you would like to help, the link to the voting page is here:

23. Thanks so much
Thanks so much for the support folks. I really appreciate it. It looks like Massbackwards is going to take it but I'll hit 300 this morning and barring a major miracle, end up with a solid third. But the support of my fellow lefties means more to me than the award.

You're the best. Thanks again.

24. Why are all of the cartoon sites rightwing (and unfunny)?
I looked at each of the cartoons, and only two (The Least I Could Do and Being Five) were funny - the other were just drawings illustrating rightwing talking points.

The only thing I can think is that they're so bad they can't get published anywhere, so they only have blogs to turn to.
