The Guardian UK asking readers to suggest which US blogger should replace Tomasky.
The Guardian is the premier Liberal news site with a worldwide audience so why not recommend your favorite blogger.


snip

Who do you like reading on US politics? Who would you like to see taking up Tomasky's mantle as the Guardian's figurehead US blogger?

Do you have other ideas about what you'd want from whoever occupies the role next? What do you most value from this kind of blogging: the opinions, the voice, the engagement with readers...It's your call: we'd love to hear from you.

If they want the smartest, funniest, most perceptive, most quotable blogger, that is.

Otherwise, anyone will do.

8. The Guardian wants a US Blogger! so this is an opportunity for a Liberal American perspective
to be read and discussed by a worldwide audience.
