This is neat - all the factions side by side in one convenient place for tracking commentary on the US election.

It's interesting that blogs are not as visible and influential with regards to the Australian election.

While there is the sad Malcolm Turnbull site (he's so terribly earnest) that has a [blog](http://www.turnbullforwentworth.org.au/news/default.asp?action=article&ID=57&ref=katecarruthers.com) on it and a lame Democrats [bulletin](http://www.democrats.org.au/bulletins/?bulletin%5Fid=66&display=1&ref=katecarruthers.com) (don't forget their catchy new slogan 'the lie detectors' - hmmm wonder if that will help us forget the last fiasco?).

There is certainly no equivalent site to Watchblog.com that I know of. Although as usual I'm happy to be proved wrong on this.
