Below the Fold

Somehow our arch-nemesis, the PUMA blog "The Confluence," was nominated by the 2008 Weblog Awards as one of the Best Liberal Blogs of 2008. Friends, we know better: Confluence isn't liberal, it's a "national enquirer" of anti-Obama conspiracy theories and wingnuttery. If Confluence wins, they'll use the award to legitimize themselves as the "new left" on the internet. We can't allow this to happen. Please go to the voting page and vote for "Wonkette," the current favorite to beat Confluence. And, make sure to re-vote at least daily: the software allows one vote per day, but with IP-spoofing software, multiple devices, or multiple networks, you should be able to vote as much as you want. Oh, and yes, we do have an archnemesis.
