Baseball is the sport of Democrats. Clearly, its populist rhythm, its lyricism of movement in time and space, and its statistical richness make it so, for both dreamers and policy geeks. (Whispered aside: I may have reached this conclusion partly because baseball is the only sport that values aging lefties, or maybe it's just a visceral reaction against George Will). I'm convinced of this because Kos is doing baseball. Yeah, the prolific Markos ZĂșniga, Deaniac and founder of the heavily-trafficked lefty destination blog Daily Kos, is moving into Our National Pastime. The real story here to me isn't really the politics, it's the software. Kos is using the sytem created to handle dKos' traffic and diarists to assemble a network of team-oriented blogs. So far, it looks cool. Of course, I'll be hanging out more on Amazin' Avenue, especially if Reyes continues his amazing ways.
