Candidates and bloggers at this morning's DNC session

According to "BarbinMD" over at dKos:

Clark has always been in tune with the bloggers. It was we who encouraged (demanded, begged, etc) him to run in the first place. And all thru the Kerry campaign, he kept his own blog going. We know he reads it frequently, and when he can, he writes his own stuff for it. He's even chatted there.

From everything I've read, Clark's meeting room at the Winter Meeting was every bit as packed with people as any of the candidates. So it's not like he had more time to wander around. He made a point to take the time to visit bloggers' row.

But what about Clinton, Edwards, and the rest? Do they figure they can hire someone to create a blogger community and thus "check the box" for having netroots? I'm reminded of the first time Edwards "blogged" at TPM Cafe. And Kos too for that matter. He threw up a little essay and that was it. No interaction with the participants. He's learned from that since, but maybe not as much as he needs to. As for Clinton, she's obviously too big to mess with bloggers. And I got a feeling Obama hasn't figured out who we are yet.

I ran across this at dKos and thought it was sort of interesting.

Wes Clark was the only 1st day speaker to bother with bloggers' row, right? Then BarbinMD posts something to that effect over at dKos, and surprise surprise... every swinging candidate drops by to chat up the bloggers on Day 2.

I guess that's why they call it leadership.
