...flourishing. Technorati, a website focusing on new media, ranks two of the Big sites - Big Government and Breitbart.tv - on its influential top-100 list. (At No. 24 in March, Big Government - while trailing the No.?1 site, the Huffington Post - was ahead of such liberal sites as Daily Kos and Talking Points Memo.) According to Solov, he and Breitbart have not sought outside investors, funding the sites with their own money along with ad revenue. But this may change.

The collapse of the Golden State provides an irresistible parable for hippie-lefty vegan politics, the failure of a quasi-Scandinavian progressive experiment symbolized by MoveOn.org, Daily Kos and the Sierra Club; yoga, crystals and medical marijuana; "Hollywood values" and "San Francisco values."
