Howard Fineman writes, "If I am hearing Simon Rosenberg right (and he is worth listening to), a nasty civil war is brewing within the Democratic Party, and Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton - the party's presumptive 2008 nominee - needs to avoid getting caught in the middle of it. 'It's not a fight between liberals and conservatives,' Rosenberg told me the other day. 'It's between our 'governing class' here and activists everywhere else.' In other words, it's The Beltway versus The Blogosphere."
Thanks to Oval Office 2008 for the link. Daniel Owens: "Blogs are great at bringing together communities of interest. They are a great way of communicating with the people who are already inclined to support you - which is why it is still perfecly sensible for Hillary and other candidates to be making contact with major bloggers. But I think they take converts, not make them. Winning votes requires communicating to the unconverted. For that, the traditional air-and-ground war remain the only effective tools."
