Three Jackson County based Democratic blogs seem to have ceased operation. The blogs, a constant source of laughter for The Source, have all been left untouched for many weeks.
Blog CCP, once run by now Jackson County Democrat leader Steve Bough, has not been updated since December 8th. The last two posts, one in December and one in November, were filed by Dan Ryan who seems to prefer his own blog, Gone Mild. It seems that without Bough, there is no CCP, at least not online.
The KC Blue Blog hasn’t posted since they bragged about Carl Peterson’s retirement on December 15th. It is probably telling that they ended on a non-political note. They never had much to say anyway.
Raytown Progressive has also been silent of late. In truth, Andy Pickard, the blog’s author, got spanked out of the Raytown Democratic Association leadership, and probably has no stomach for politics at this point. His main nemesis, State Representative Will Kraus, humiliated Democrats in Raytown, which may have shut Pickard up for good.
We can’t say we miss these left-leaning blogs, but it certainly is less fun to poke fun at them if they won’t post something.
