The American Spectator

The Spectacle Blog

An incredible host of conservative bloggers, ranging from Mark Tapscott at The Examiner, who is a member of the Freedom of Information Act Hall of Fame, to me and Brian Faughnan at respective blogs at the Washington Times, to the directors of Red State, to Breitbart's blog, to several at Red County, to a particularly well-researched one by Jim Geraghty at The Campaign Spot at NRO, .... and the list goes on and on and on; I wish I could post every last link... has stepped forward in solidarity with John McCormack of the Weekly Standard to demand that New York congressional candidate Dede Scozzafava withdraw from her race because of her campaign's use of the police to try to intimidate McCormack. I report this here at the Spectator not by way of advocacy, but by way of observation that this is a unique example of conservative bloggers working in "viral" ways to push a common theme. Any student of the new media should find this fascinating as a cultural/media phenomenon.
