• Sayfie Review online survey: Smith won debate. Mr. G's review of the debate from the right. A pretty comprehensive take from Jim's fill-in, Sunshine Editor.

• If  you're into boring issues, here is how Ronda, Murman et al. in Senate 10 feel about them.

• Self-promotion alert: Check out my spin on negative campaigning.

• Blog industry news (yes, I know, that sounds hilarious): Sticks of Fire and Tampa Gold/SoHo Tampa strike a strategic alliance.
