Nominate your choice for Best Liberal Blog.
A couple of notes:
- You can nominate yourself; don't be shy.
- The number of nominations a blog receives is irrelevant. One nomination is enough...
- In some cases the list of finalists may contain sites not publically nominated.
- This contest is about fun - find some new blogs to read by following the links.

The blog that single-handedly won the election for the Democrats by convincing Christians not to vote, and daring to expose the truth about Bush instead of pussy-footing around the REAL issue.

My blog is not a purely political one, but I do often turn to my heartfelt political beliefs.

I also post my strong opinions on ethics, love,
