"New York needs a kick ass political blog full of Kossacks and as Blog is my witness, I will make that happen ... with your help," writes the founder, "Liza," a self-described MILF (look it up), web consultant, and homeschool mom.

This raises the point that, weirdly, there are no important, politically engaged blogs (as opposed to our, you know, strictly objective commentary), liberal or conservative, in New York City.

Another mark of the new civility -- or is it stagnation? -- of post-Giuliani New York.
