The Harold Ford Junior 2006 blog writes:
We want to make something 100% clear here–we are a Ford support blog. We are not going to give people who attack or oppose the Congressman a bully pulpit here. We are here as a service to the supporters of Congressman Ford, not his adversaries. Any negative comments about the Congressman or any other comments that we deem not appropriate for our blog will be deleted.
Translation: we don’t deal so well with criticism. Isn’t that what press releases are for?

I know of VERY FEW politicians who will be interviewed of participate in call in talk shows without a pretty thick filter. Real Blogging is going to be too transparent and rapid for them. Web sites: Yes. Blogging: No.
Too bad but thats the kind of folks who seek and get office these days.

Since this blog is NOT associated with the campaign – it would be quite amusing if they were issuing their own press releases
