Meet The New Boss...

By Thomas Krehbiel

Since I first saw SWAC Girl's post welcoming Spank That Donkey to the ODBA, I couldn't help but think that there was going to be trouble in that organization. Could Spank and Shaun Kenney -- bitter rivals on opposite poles of Virginia Republicanism -- co-exist together in the same organization?

Eh, not so much, it seems. I'm just reading between the lines of course, but it sounds like the SWAC bloggers are hijacking the ODBA to rule it with an iron fist of intolerance, and Cat is the first victim. Daily Whackjob thinks so, too.

Anybody surprised? Me neither. That's your Republican grassroots in action, Virginia.

P.S. Where da heck did this Richmond Blogger's Day come from? Is this another one of those contrived political gigs where Lt. Gov. Bolling tries to glad-hand all the Virginia bloggers?

Kat and both Kenneys were booted. Others have now bailed on their own. The SWACers win.

The SWACers win *what*, exactly? Is ODBA really that big of a deal?

I can only guess they wanted to take over an organization with some name recognition. I wouldn't be surprised to start seeing a steady stream of "press releases" like that one they made up during the Joe Stanley affair.

This was the second Richmond Bloggers' Day that Bolling has hosted. I went last year, but was unable to go this year. I believe all the ODBA was invited along with a few other bloggers. As far as I know all the bloggers that attended can be classified as conservative except two.
