New 'Blawgmakers' In Congress
I've found some time over the past couple of weeks to make my occasional clicks through congressional Web sites in search of new blogs. By my count, there are a half-dozen new "blawgmakers" in Congress.
I've added links to the blogroll at the left, but here's a pullout list of the newcomers:
-- Rep. Marion Berry, D-Ark.;
-- Rep. John Carter, R-Texas;
-- Rep. Bud Cramer Jr., D-Ala.;
-- Rep. Phil Gingrey, R-Ga.;
-- Rep. Steve Israel, D-N.Y.;
-- And Rep. Cathy McMorris, R-Wash.;
That's three Republicans and three Democrats, making the partisan growth rate for the congressional blogosphere equal.
As for the blog divide between the two chambers of Congress, the House has the clear advantage over the Senate. Maybe that's as it should be. The nation's founders, after all, designed the lower chamber as the one closer to the people, and the blogosphere is supposed to be all about people power.

The congressional links for Rep. Harris, Speaker Hastert, and Rep. Tancredo's are not working.
