Dare we hope for a battle of the political blogs?
…Probably not; Dem-lovin’ Colorado Pols took a shot Wednesday at relentlessly Republican Colorado Peak Politics, but as of late in the day, Peak still wasn’t paying Pols no never mind over the barb and seemed preoccupied with other political fodder. Rats.
At any rate, here’s the better part of Pols’ post by media monitor Jason Salzman:
If you think that liking conservative talk radio and hating U.S. Sen. Cory Gardner are mutually exclusive, you would be wrong.
KNUS 710-AM co-hosts Julie Hayden and Chuck Bonniwell couldn’t have proven the point more clearly than they did last month in a segment titled, “Why We Hate Cory Gardner and Think You Should too.”
And in doing so, Bonniwell said something you don’t often hear from the mouths of righties: ColoradoPols is a much better blog than the conservative Colorado Peak Politics, which describes itself as “Colorado’s Conservative Bully Pulpit.”
Calling Pols “incredibly snarky, unfair, and everything else,” Bonniwell nonetheless said Pols is “kind of fun” and interesting reading, even though it’s a “left-wing” site.
Added Salzman:
Referring to Peak Politics, Bonniwell said, “You might as well read press releases and fall asleep, unfortunately.”
I wouldn’t even go that far, but yes, between Pols and Peak Politics, there’s objectively no contest.
