Isn't that going to undermine any kind of objectivity of those bloggers? Wouldn't they essentially be consultants to the party then? I can understand you'd want to be a consultant for a party you vigorously support but I think it completely undermines the reliability of the writer as an independent voice.RatelDajerhttp://popthestack.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21136151.post-24778767655812964012011-01-27T19:18:36.318-07:002011-01-27T19:18:36.318-07:00When the Budweiser or Coors girls show up?When the Budweiser or Coors girls show up?CanadianSensehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01010880162544507668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21136151.post-2924163166117795712011-01-27T19:13:11.138-07:002011-01-27T19:13:11.138-07:00Is it ever to late for Miller time? =)Is it ever to late for Miller time? =)Ardvarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08500944437649023719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21136151.post-51230237474115495692011-01-27T16:22:12.585-07:002011-01-27T16:22:12.585-07:00Any chance Gerry Nichols might put up?

We follow politics and all that is associated with it, we attack, we defend, we spin, we counter spin, we know how the other guys are going to respond because that is the way we would respond, and most of all we do it from outside the bubble, where sometimes people inside don't see as clear as they should.Ardvarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08500944437649023719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21136151.post-22525339993466891972011-01-27T15:14:31.740-07:002011-01-27T15:14:31.740-07:00I also wish that the CPC War Room had ran the poop...I also wish that the CPC War Room had ran the pooping puffin by us ... well not literally.Rural and Righthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16788374444497052340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21136151.post-20191515419385629192011-01-27T14:47:07.697-07:002011-01-27T14:47:07.697-07:00Yup, now he is free to campaign for the PC leaders...Yup, now he is free to campaign for the PC leadership.Ardvarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08500944437649023719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21136151.post-3394591452182418812011-01-27T14:42:50.520-07:002011-01-27T14:42:50.520-07:00OT, Ted Morton resigns as minister of finance.OT, Ted Morton resigns as minister of finance.maryThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10099534478709227356noreply@blogger.com
