No wonder sharp observers can see cable television frequently cannibalizing blogs for up-to-date campaign analysis and other political reporting

You are not kidding.

During the Jeremiah Wright firestorm I made a comment on your blog asking how could Obama claim that he knew Iraq would turn out badly (so that’s why he voted against it) and at the same time say that he didn’t know about Jeremiah Wright’s ‘Jeremiahs’ for 20 years? Somehow he knew Saddam but not his own minister?

Lo and behold that same afternoon there was Fred Barnes on Fox News making the same comment.

Coincidence?… Maybe… But I rather think he plumed it from the blog.
