Very good question. On a typical blog, there is no one challenging your opinion. Unlike FR, where given the same kind of thoughts and analysis being posted, yet anyone with a refinement, a correction, or even some off-the-wall opinion gets to counter that original thought, with the same additional thoughts of others having the same typographic weighing as the original thought.
Which kind of thought posting medium do you think liberals and eiltes love? Which do you think liberals and elites mock as nut-cases, rabble and incoherent?
Which do you like?
I think you hit the nail on the head....I rarely go to a blog...unless someone here posts a link....and usually it's a lot of chaff to get to a small kernel of wheat....
