LOOKING FOR A FEW BRAVE VOLUNTEERS: Hey so TPM is a pretty good blog, right? Josh Marshall and shit? Well they have a slight lead for second place over some blog we've never heard of called "The Confluence," and we think good ol' TPM deserves a little padding for that silver medal. So if you haven't yet voted for "Best Liberal Blog" today, go give TPMyour voteuntil it reaches, say, 3,200, well out of reach of "Confluence" thing. And remember in other categories to help out the Internet's best new blog of 2008, ~ synthesis ~, as well as the Internet's best small blog, Rumproast. Wonkette's primary role is that of a Charity Blog, after all, so we're proud to do what we can. [ Weblog Awards ]
