Shameless Plug
By Byron LaMasters
More from me in the news regarding the convention.
The Miami Herald:
Despite its embrace of the electronic entrepreneurs, the Democratic Party appears cognizant of the risk of opening the door to the unpredictable blogosphere. Though there is no shortage of blogs that lean to the right, most of those credentialed for Boston fall to the center, if not to the left.
Party organizers said they were overwhelmed with about 200 applications. The criteria for inclusion: professionalism of the site, originality and readership.
Those chosen include blogs like Burnt Orange Report, run by Byron LaMasters, a University of Texas student, who suggests on his site that he might have made the cut because ``I'm from [President] Bush's home state, and I've had to hear his crap much longer than most Americans.''
It's funny what people decide to publish from an interview. The rest of the interview was pretty subdued, but I guess they were looking for some fiery rhetoric, and I gave them a little.
