Michigan for Edwards Blog Goes Over 10,000 Visits

I think we would have gotten far more hits if we'd actually had a primary. But, in general, I think this was a useful effort and I encourage folks to blog for their candidates. I thought state-blogs would really take off this cycle and that hasn't exactly happened as far as I can tell, but there is slow, steady progress.

FYI: Soon I'll be announcing a new West Michigan Progressive Blog. It'll be on SoapBlox, will hopefully be a group blog (if not immediately, then soon thereafter) and will concentrate on Kent County, Third Congressional District, and then to Muskegon and the 2nd Congressional District and eventually to Kalamazoo & St. Joe and the 6th Congressional District. It'll discuss local politics, and representatives from West Michigan in Lansing and Washington.

Any nominations for what I should name it?

Grand Valley Blues
Blue Grand Valley
On the Shores of the Blue Grand
The West Michigan Progressive
Third Coast ....

I haven't given it too much thought yet, though I plan to go live in 2-3 weeks. So, let me know what you think a good name would be. Hopefully you can be more creative than I was above. -- Phil
