Room 8
I think I never clarified my previous comments about this: I think the two individuals going are good choices. Rock and Gate are people I seldom agree with but are excellent choices. But Room 8 is a lousy blog. The level of discourse is often low and dominated by people who aren't supposed to be posting doing so anonymously to spread smears (often dubiously true if at all) about rivals. And that comes from both sides of the Democratic divide in Brooklyn at least. Much of the discourse on Room 8 has no relavence to anyone who isn't on the staff of a politician. The main exception to those two patterns of insiders talking about insiders talking about insiders is Wallner, who in most ways is even worse. In my mind Rock and Gate are better than the blog they call home. Much better.
