Can bloggers make a differnce in the World o' Politics?

Here's a great article via AlterNet.org that asks Can blogs revolutionize progressive politics

It's really long and goes into a lot of detail, but many of the bloggers we know and love are mentioned inside it somewhere:

Dr.B.
Echidne of the Snakes
Amanda at Pandagon
Culture Kitchen
Salon Broadsheet (it's free, you just have to watch a commercial)
Chris Nolan of Spot-On

And one gets to see what dKos really thinks about us minority and/or women bloggers. (Not like we didn't almost know already, but still.)

Can you believe it, Kevin Drum really has tried to include us into his daily discourse. Have I missed something? Asking once, "Where are all the women bloggers" doesn't count.

But do notice how the first two-third's of the article are all about the men's, with women and minorities being added under a "diversity" heading.
