The Bilerico Project, one of the largest LGBT blogs, also got credentials for the convention. We’re based in Indiana, but we’re a national scope blog.
Our founder blogs for Blue Indiana as well. We’re extremely excited the DNC has been so open and accepting of bloggers at the convention this year. Blogs have been given amazing access. It’s nice to know the party is finally starting to get it.
As a partisan Democrat, I just hope the Republicans don’t catch on for another few cycles. Once they learn to manipulate a medium, they tend to be far more effective than Democrats. LOL
Sorry to you Republican readers out there. I know not all Republicans are luddites, just the powerful ones.
