Where liberals seemed to have been motivated to organize by a yearning to get back into power, conservatives preferred a more disciplined and individualistic approach. As Rob Nepell pointed out, some conservative efforts to mirror the left have been successful, including the “Porkbusters” project but that by and large, conservatives remain a community of individuals.

It seems to me there is an argument that the political blogosphere has evolved in a manner that mirrors fundamental ideas of each side. While “conservatives remain a community of individuals.” the left sides seems much more centralized, monolithic and hive-like.
