I absolutely agree. There is nothing fundamentally different between political blogging and Tom Paine and like-minded patriots churned out via the printing press in the barn in the lead up to and thru the Revolutionary War. No difference at all.
That said... I can see a case being made for the FEC having some say in what front blogs do. Front blogs being a weblog that is actually just a cover or a front for an organized political party and/or candidate which is otherwise already under the FEC's jurisdiction. But, leave us citizen bloggers the hell alone! We should be able to advocate for whomever or whatever we wish.
