LAFTA at CAFTA: Independent Sources Top Blog Headlines

Politicians learned long ago that without a good sound bite, they would not be heard. The same is true with blogs but the headlines are what need to be catchy. With the advent of RSS readers, this is is even more important.

Creative headline writing can be particularly challenging when trying to get a timely posting up. Below are blog articles that achieved both timeliness (their posts were up within hours of the press reports) and creativity. Independent Sources has categorized them between those generally for and against the trade pact. (Special mention goes to Scrapple Face for the LAFTA tag in our headline)

Blogs both for and against weigh on the oh-so-close CAFTA vote:

Against CAFTA:

Shafta! (Left to their own Devices)

Crapta (Chattanoogagreen)

Did CAFTA Hafta Pass (Wirecan)

Sellouts! CAFTA Blows! (The Toad Report)

CAFTA Passes, Workers Screwed Once Again (MF Blog)

The House of Republicans –er Representatives (Randem.net)

For CAFTA:
