It's that time of year- the leaves are falling, it's getting darker earlier and the airwaves are getting filled with talking heads and initiative ads.

And... it's time for our annual call for new bloggers!

Who are we looking for?

• People Interested in local politics and want their voices heard
• Folks with specialized knowledge of one local issue
• Good writers who can be informative and entertaining
• Those who can make a committment to blogging at least twice a month
• You!

Do you already have a blog? Well, maybe we could syndicate some of your stuff. We're open to it all. Give us some suggestions or ideas.

Hey... did you know that we just got a big ole' name drop in The Stranger last week?!? We're still blushing.

Contact info AT betterdonkey.org and let us know who you are, what you're interested in blogging about and some writing samples or maybe a link to your own personal blog.

No one won... or did they?

Federal appeals court judge John G. Roberts is Supreme Court nominee

Don't they make a cute couple? They are so totally holding hands. Anyway, officially, no one one our contest, but here at BetterDonkey.org, everyone's a winner.

Okay okay, fine, we don't have the budget to make everyone a winner, but we will still draw the name of an entrant at random, and said entrant will win win win some beer beer beer.

Stay tuned for details.

LAST CHANCE TO ENTER!!! BUSH ANNOUNCES COURT NOMINEE TONIGHT!!!

The Supermajority blows Super-majorly!
Perhaps state Rep. Schual-Berke said it best: "We should end the tyranny of the minority, stop thwarting the will of the majority, and victimizing our children. Let's pass school levies with a simple majority vote. It's fair; it's simple."
