This is not how it works for Rudy Giuliani or John McCain. The people on those calls are high-traffic national blogs focused on politics. The people on the Huckabee call were, at least, local blogs, often focused on things other than politics.” [...] [...] Here’s how Soren Dayton of eyeon08.com described the Huckabee calls: “Every question, except mine, started with an expression of support or love.

Mike Huckabee blogger conference call. I haven’t seen any audio of the call posted yet, but once I do I’ll be sure to post a link. The first thing that struck me is that no one that I had heard of was asking questions. Huckabee said that they have 150 “Bloggers for Huckabee,” and they are clearly different people. Every question, except mine, started with an expression of support or love. This is not how it works for Rudy Giuliani or John McCain. The people on those calls are high-traffic national blogs focused on politics. The people on the Huckabee call were, at least, local blogs, often focused on things other than politics. At the very least this is a different model than the McCain and Giuliani are taking. It is very possible that it is closer to what Mitt Romney’s campaign is doing online, namely developing a blogger community that talks primarily to supporters. Thompson’s seems some of a hybrid. This is interesting, although I am not sure what to make of it. [...] [...] Eyeon08 has a write up and review of the latest Gov. Mike Huckabee blogger conference call.
