Political Blogs on the Right

If Herman Cain and Rick Perry and Tim Pawlenty are smart they will take a close look at what the right side political blogs did to Sarah Palin and Fred Thompson.  ( I suspect there might be other examples as well if one looks hard enough).  When they do they will find that those self same blogs hamstrung each of these people, oft times in vile ways to improve their own readership.  The lesson all these candidates should draw from this is simple.  Create your own support structure.  Defend yourself.  Kick the right leaning bloggers and their organizations to the curb.  None of them can be trusted.
