		<description>I have actively sought moderate and centrist blogs...those with capacity for self-reflection and a willingness to hold themselves lightly.  The donklephant tagline sold me...and continues to bring smiles to those I share it with.  Thanks to Justin and Alan for having a sense of humor along with their opinions about politics!

I&#039;ve only been reading blogs and news online for a couple of months, so I&#039;m grateful for any leads on blogs to check out and links that I find.  I feel a little bit like Alice down the rabbit hole.  :)  Time with my morning newspaper is a lot shorter, since I&#039;ve seen most of the national news the previous evening on the blogs.

I also read The Moderate Voice, Centerfield, Third Way (rarely anything new), Buck Naked Politics, Good Will Hinton, Q&amp;O, BlogHer:Politics and The Impolitic in addition to all the presidential candidate emails (McCain, Obama, Barr &amp; Paul) then I read articles &amp; commentaries on Huffington Post, NY Times and McClatchy Washington Bureau.  So in addition to blogs...what else do you read?</description>

Good question.  For me: TMV, Poligazette, Hot Air (since Cap&#039;n Ed moved), DailyKos, Q&amp;O, Reason Hit &amp; Run, Outside The Beltway, Atlantic (Sullivan and McCardle), Freedom Democrats, Jon Swift, and of course Dyre Portents and everyone in the Moderate Blog Network.... and you?</description>
