Weather permitting, I’ll be there. Will you?
Bloggers as America’s Watchdogs: New Administration, New Roles?
Sponsored by the American Constitution Society Philadelphia Lawyers and Penn Law School chapters:
The blogosphere began during the early months of the Bush Administration with opposition and criticism being the dominant modes for online progressives. With a new administration in the White House, how will the role of the netroots change? How do leaders of online opinion see their responsibilities with respect to the new President?

Well they will certainly be divided on the left as we’ve seen. Since even people like BooMan (someone who is accused of being in the tank for Obama) criticizes Obama so I doubt it will morph into the right-wing blogs during the Iraq travesty.
Note: BooMan in the Tank for Obama is as ridiculous assertion as that an assertion of Dave Sirota being a nice guy.
can’t make it, I have a coalition to save the libraries meeting. good luck!
