WORTHINGTON DAILY GLOBE: “POLITICAL BLOG PRESENCE EXPANDS”
By Michael B. Brodkorb | April 25, 2008
“Blogs – on-line journals, diaries or just opinions – come in several varieties, ranging from Capitol reporters who post news updates to political insiders to people just dishing their opinions on the news of the day.
Michael Brodkorb’s Minnesota Democrats Exposed blog is a widely mentioned politically conservative blog, read by both sides of the political aisle. Brodkorb said about 40,000 people have left comments on his Web site since he started in 2004.
Brodkorb, a self-described partisan Republican, has worked on and off for the Minnesota Republican Party and on behalf of Republican candidates.
‘Obviously it can get a little partisan,’ Brodkorb said. But ‘Republicans and Democrats actively read my site.’
On the liberal side, one widely read local blog is MNPublius, which is run by three 20-something students. Like most partisan bloggers, they, too, have been involved with political campaigns and groups.
MNPublius blogger Zack Stephenson said he hopes the blog has some influence on the political process. He said every now and then legislators and reporters tell him they read the blog.
‘It’s amazing people care what I think,’ Stephenson said. ‘It’s very flattering.’” Source: Worthington Daily Globe, April 25, 2008

They forgot to mention the great amount of editing that happens at MN Pooplius, they only allow like minded to post there.
Notice how not even one single mention in a story or a post there about Frankens Tax problems.
MN Pooplius should not even be mentioned in the same article os MDE, the socialist kids at MN Pooplius will never be able to debate an issue nor do they present any facts.
Look to their Pawlenty approval story, Zack was caught lying so bad, even his regular posters said he was out of line on that story!
One muct remeber with the boys at MN Pooplius, if you are in your 20′s and not a liberal you have no heart, if you are in your 30′s and not a conservative, you have no brains.
Let’s give the kids a few more years to grow up and see who they turn out to be.

Zack, I know you come here and read this blog, have no shame do you little Zacky?
Just cannot bring yourself to admit Frankenfraud has some serious trouble ahead.
Zack you are caught lying more often than not, you try to spin stuff and do it so badly even your regulars call you on it. My guess is your blog will have about 3 people reading it ayear from now being we all are learning how you hide facts and spin lies.
I am kind of hoping we can get the word out more and more of what a lying piece of shit blog you run.

“…about 40,000 people have left comments…”
I’m not quite sure about that. It seems like 75% of the comments come from 2 unhinged lefties who must always have the last word on any thread, lest someone else think they (the lefties) actually agree with the last comment left by a clear-thinking individual.
