The Post team, along with reporters from other national publications and scores of political operatives, had come to get a glimpse of the future.

This is a pretty positive view of the liberal blogs, especially dKos, written by a veteran MSM'er.
It will be interesting to see if the WaPo reporters write anything for the weekend editions.
