Various well-known bloggers talk about how the blogs did this year in stimulating discussion, challenging errors and omissions in the general press, and so forth. I contribute a quote about how “when you sit out an election without backing a candidate, you become painfully aware of how easy it is for blogs turn themselves into an echo chamber for their side’s talking points. Not attractive.” Some blogs I turned to this fall for politics coverage in part because I couldn’t always guess ahead of time what line they’d take: Steve Chapman, Megan McArdle, Marginal Revolution, Culture11’s Confabulum, Ann Althouse, Virginia Postrel, Mickey Kaus (not an exhaustive list by any means).

Unfortunately Steve Chapman, as a purported libertarian, instead of addressing hard philosophical issues spent most of his political coverage on the inane babblings of the politicians and seemed to delight in taking a side when a general waving to these politicians showing evidence of not being willing or not being capable of discussing the issues much beyond the fourth grade level would have sufficed. I apologize in advance to some fourth graders who could be reading this comment and are offended.
