Signs of De-alignment - January 20, 2006 - The New York Sun - NY Newspaper: "By the 2004 election, the Internet was a decade old, but there were only a handful of centrist sites. Today, the political blog aggregator punditdrome.com lists 35 centrist blogs as opposed to 40 conservatives and 42 liberals. That's just one measure; others list far more centrist sites.

'Centrist and independent blogs have grown enormously over the past two years,' says Joe Gandelman, author of themoderatevoice.com. 'What's most notable is that an increasing number of people want to be identified as centrists, independents or moderates. That's the big shift. A lot of people don't want to be identified as partisans anymore.'"

I'm not sure I agree, but the piece brings up some point that haven't been addressed much.
