I’m at the DNC Winter Meeting in Washington, DC this weekend. I’m currently being crushed by the irony of being a liberal blogger covering the Republican presidential primary at a Democratic function that features all Democratic presidential candidates. Unless Sam Brownback or Tom Tancredo take a wrong turn at Dupont circle, I’m probably not going to get to hear any Republican candidates this weekend, but it should be fun. I’ll get to hear a lot of Chuck Hagel’s thoughts on Iraq via most of the Democratic field, so I’ve got that going for me…which is nice.

Readers will notice that there is a new link in the header for Candidate Bios. These are basic profiles on the Republican candidates and include background information such as previous public offices, organization affiliations, interest group ratings, 2008 candidacy data and a Technorati-powered blog buzz chart for the last seven days.

We hope to expand on these, such as more interest group ratings, etc., as time wears on and are open to suggestions.

Be on the look out for other features popping up in the future as well.
