There were only a couple of names not familiar to me, and those were on the "favorites" list. Many of the "not favorites" are Republican Congressmen or Senators.

I would know damn few people in the news by sight. I rarely watch TV news, and get most of my information verbally. You'd be astounded at how many famous people in the news you could flash a photo of in front of me and have me go, "who the hell is that?"

Another feature of the article was the long list of right-leaning bloggers with associated links. Most of them I've never even heard of, and there are some missing from the list that kind of surprise me, but there are two or three on there that I read regularly.
