While CNN's Blitzer goes into "depth" about Bloggers Wars with Edwards Campaign they fail to point out "The OTHER SPECIAL INTERESTS" who promote and take down Candidates ...can I say AIPAC?
Link to Blitzer/CNN's report on Edwards firing and being faced with Catholic Dissent over his Campaign:

Daddy: Have Harvard MBA, Send JobBy Mark Raven | bio
I had been shocked, absolutely shocked that National Review, as of 11 p.m. Sept. 17, had remained silent on this piece in The Washington Post. Kate O'Beirne, wife of Jim O'Beirne, the Bush Administration's hiring czar for the Coalition Provisional Authority, may well be National Review's most visible property aside from William F. Buckley. (Yes, I know. I know. John P. Normanson believes that he holds the title of Bill Buckley's favorite. Normanson clung to that foolish "me-second" myth at the Washington Times and Weekly Standard, and he still hangs on to it at Father Rupert's newspaper. Some things cannot be helped.)
Back to Mrs. O'Beirne: National Review had not posted a single word on National Review Online to counter the WaPo excerpt from Rajiv Chandrasekaran's book, "Imperial Life in the Emerald City."
Clifford May and Byron York, the two National Review scribes most often sent out on such an assignment, had remained silent on this story. Stephen Spruiell, the head of NRO's Media Blog, had typed not one word on the issue.
National Review and/or NRO had not even rebuked the Washington Post piece and/or Chandrasekaran's book under one of its anonymous editorials, which, I'm told, are often the products of Kathryn Jean Lopez, Richard Lowry, and Jack Fowler. However, Mr. Fowler took time on NRO Sept. 17 to praise the efforts of New York Post sports columnist Phil Mushnick, but typed nary a word to denounce the Post and/or Chandrasekaran.
Even Mark Steyn, David Frum, and Michael Ledeen had declined, it appears, to write an item in support of Mrs. O'Beirne and her husband. Ledeen's silence, in particular, brings me to my second point.
The Washington Post had reported a story along these lines before. On Sunday, May 23, 2004, the Post ran a front-page story entitled, "In Iraq, the Job Opportunity of a Lifetime." The story, which was written by Ariana Eunjung Cha, carried the subheadline, "Managing a $13 Billion Budget With No Experience."
