Hotline Political Network Welcomes Colorado Pols
Q: Where do political junkies in your state get their news?
A: These sites -- the affiliates in our Hotline Political Network.
We don't endorse all the content on 'em -- they're independent, after all, which is a good thing -- but we do vouch for the sites' influence in their states and, generally, the degree to which folks in both major parties find them fair. Some are run by folks who have backgrounds in politics; others are authored by journalists. Some are fully-fledged news organizations.
To be included in our informal network, the sites must operate independently of any political candidate or of any entity that represents political candidates. No one operating a site can be paid by a firm that has an '08 candidate as a client. Site contributors linked to campaigns must disclose their affiliations. If site owners decide to donate to, volunteer for or raise money for any candidate ('08 or otherwise), they gotta tell you about first -- in big bold type, at the top of their pages. That way, you'll know. Other than that, enjoy!

I've been following a site for New Mexico politics since I left the state to join the Air Force:

Nice mix of humor and information.
