3bluedudes is a political blog with a Democratic partisan slant. While we lean to the left, we will be calling it as we see it in all cases. When the news is bad for Democrats, we’ll say so. When the Democrats have screwed up [and we all know they do], we’ll say so. In addition, look for our state political coverage, focused mostly on our home states of Pennsylvania, Maryland and New York. More » (Source: 3bluedudes)
