Just read this Hot Air post by Allahpundit on Nevada…

Am I the only one to notice that many other US bloggers on the right will use either contacts or inside information in their posts but AP, though a brilliant wordsmith, often appears to tell us nothing that we couldn’t find out from reading stuff ourselves. RSM would jump into his Kia (pre deer attack) and drive to Nevada and hang out with various Runyonesque characters, Ed would interview them, Ace would be fed tips from a whole swathe of informants and Dan would just go Sherlock Holmes, processing data like a piranha then planting down his flag saying “here I stand”.

I live in the UK – was last in Nevada for a few days 10 years ago – yet I get the feeling that after I had googled Angle/Reid I could have written this post though my prose would have been far clumsier.

Exit question – is AP just a one man News Aggregator who weaves his words with style and grace but who appears not to use too much shoe leather to find out what is happening behind the scenes?  I think we should be told…
