Blog Name: Stop the ACLU
URL: http://www.stoptheaclu.com
Feed: feed:http://stoptheaclu.com/feed/
This time last year, Stop the ACLU didn't exist. Today, it is ranked as the 6th highest blog in the TLLB Ecosystem and has risen to the class of Instapundit and Captain Quarters.
The blog has achieved success through hard work, perserverance and bringing concerned citizens together. It has lead a charge for Conservative values against the onslaught of the ACLU. It saw it void and it filled in a big way.
Through Open Trackback Fests, and starting its own Carnival, Stop the ACLU is helping create a sense of community on the web. Its going to be a powerful force in the blogosphere for years to come. Stop the ACLU is accessible, intelligently written and provides a forum for Conservatives to air their views.
Its a success story that shows in America, in the 21st Century, and in the blogosphere, you can still achieve anything you put your mind to. Its my honor and privilege to nominate "Stop the ACLU" for Best Conservative Blog.

I nominate Hugh Hewitt. hughhewitt.com. He's a principled conservative with a shrewd political eye. He's had real world political experience, which, to me, gives him better political sense than some who're just bloggers or columnists, valuable though those folks are. Plus, he's working hard to help forge and promote the New Media to help get the conservative word out.
Without a doubt,

Writing fromm deep inside the Bright Blue Belly of the Massachusetts Beast, PETER PORCUPINE keeps a clear and candid eye upon the doings of his Cape Cod neighbor, Ted Kennedy, and informs and inspires his conservative friends and neighbors, giving them hope for an eventual Renaissance of normalcy and prosperity.

Commonwealth Conservative
http://www.vaconservative.com
Since this was a Virginia election year, Commonwealth Conservative has to be nominated. That blog has done more for the promotion of the Virginia political blogosphere than anyone. Unselfish and a tireless promoter of smaller blogs.
He has to be nominated. It's the cream of the crop.
I hereby nominate...

Best Business Blog Nomination
The Manufacturers Blog
http://blog.nam.org
When it comes to policy blogging inside the Beltway, the National Association of Manufacturers' Manufacturers Blog is the leader of the pack. They have a genuine voice for a political trade association blog that covers things important to the group like unions, energy legislation and judicial nominations.
Commonwealth Conservative
http://www.vaconservative.com
Quite some time ago, while google searching for something or other, I stumbled upon Commonwealth Conservative.
I was immediately drawn in by his sparse, yet concise writing style, and the general "friendliness" of the site's owner.
After only a few visits to his site I realized just how well grounded Chad is in Virginia Politics. (And old movies. And Baseball.) I began to use his site as a source of news.
He is always quick to acknowlege new Virginia blogs, and will attempt to link his large readership base to Virginia bloggers of either party.
The only negative anyone on the selection commitee will find regarding Mr. Dotson's Blog is the fact that it was reading his that inspired me to create mine. Forgive him for that, he knew not what he was doing.
What's A Kyer?
Conservative in all meanings of the term.
William F. Buckley Jr. eat your heart out.

Specializing in "Syllogistic Hypocrisy" -- when some person or group claims to favor or oppose X because of self-evident principle Y – but they don’t apply principle Y to everything else, and in severe cases they don’t apply principle Y to anything but issue X.

Capital Freedom
http://capitalfreedom.blogspot.com/
I don't know why the weblog of such a good conservative leader and distinguished author keeps being neglected:
Flynn Files
(Daniel J. Flynn)
Dan's writings are thoughtful and principled, and he has been doing a great deal of work for the conservative movement, especially with respect to the Americans of my generation. I think that it would be very appropriate for his blog to be on this ballot.
I should add the feed links:
The American Princess
LaShawn Barber's Corner
Michelle Malkin

I nominate Minnesota Democrats Exposed.
