Will all the progressive bloggers please stand up

Progressive bloggers of Philadelphia, don't get taken in. The city and state political aparatus wants your support. Of course they do. These guys are very concerned, start asking why.

As I read in this morning's paper, it appears Fumo is concerned, concerned about his job and his legacy. And his friends in city and state government share his concern. Given what he is up against it doesn't surprise me. But bloggers have a role to play to uncover the stories, to look deeper, behind what is really happening in Philadelphia politics. One of the blogger participants in the meet and greet stated "We're fighting for the same thing. Everyone has to understand that." Hold on, did I miss something? Are progressive bloggers behind Act 71 that created the slots bill, did they support the pay raise?
