Not all peers are amiable but bone-headed
A few years ago, some people wanted to eliminate them. Far from fading away, though, Britain's House of Lords has joined the blogosphere. With a tip of the headwear to Maxine Clarke of Petrona, let's have a big "Hear! Hear!" for the progressive lords and ladies of Britain's Upper House of Parliament.© Peter Rozovsky 2008

A few of our notable pols have blogged during campaigns, but I'm not sure how many have kept it up after their win or loss.
Daschle, Kerry, Edwards and Dean come to mind. Yes, they're all Dems; from what I've observed the Republicans haven't figured out cyberspace yet (Ted Steven and his Intertubes!).
I'm in favor of polblogs.
Especially if the pols, rather than their handlers, actually write them. But of all the political bodies that would take to blogging, I suspect the House of Lords would have been many people's least likely suspect.
