The anger and sense of betrayal felt by the progressive bloggers is definitely not diminishing.
Attack one of us and you attack all of us.

I found this on Progressive Alaska this morning.
Meanwhile, one of my Juneau informants tells me that when Shannyn Moore tried to corner Mike Doogan today in Juneau, he locked himself in a rest room. I can't wait to find out the real story from Shannyn.
Update - 10:00 p.m: Two Juneau phone calls later.
#1 - Shannyn says the hallroom chase with Doogan is far more hilarious. She has it on tape. Can't wait!
#2 - (not Shannyn) Sarah's Grussendorf slice of stale bread is toast. Not even close to marketable.
Phil Munger has excellent sources of information, and often is a few steps ahead on breaking stories.
I can hardly wait to see that video from Shanny!
And then to find out that the legislators are going to reject Dorfy? Well that is news to put a smile on your face this morning. Woohoo!
Remember Doogan, you can run but you CANNOT hide from the Alaska progressive bloggers!

Shannyn Moore goes on Canadian radio to talk about Mike Doogan and the outing of Mudflats.

You must forward to the 20 minute mark to hear how well Shannyn explains the reason that some bloggers remain anonymous and how indefensible Mike Doogan's actions are.
Once again Shannyn does a fantastic job for the citizens of Alaska.
Love ya Shannyn!

You know the difference between Rep Mike Doogan and Mt. Redoubt? One is a sulphur spewing ash-hole and the other is just a volcano. UPDATED!
Today a so called "Democrat" outed the progressive Alaskan blogger known as AKM, the creator of the fabulous blog "Mudflats".
Mike Doogan has been stalking AKM for over four months, ever since he found his inbox crammed with e-mails sent by supporters of Alaskans for Truth. In response Doogan sent out an angry dismissive response which was posted on Mudflats in December.
He seriously put his foot in his mouth and received a lot of blowback over it, as well he should have. But instead of admitting that he had been insensitive and sending out a mea culpa, Doogan got pissed.
Since then he has been on a mission. A mission to reveal the identity of my very good friend, and fellow anonymous blogger AK Muckraker.
Well today Doogan finally managed to get his revenge. He has revealed that the mysterious AKM is in fact......wait for it........just a regular concerned citizen of Anchorage, Alaska. Her name is (redacted) and if you stood next to her in the line at the grocery store you would probably see nothing strange or exotic about her. Simply put she is just a person like any other except that she has taken her disgust with politics in Alaska, put those thoughts into words, and published them on a blog.
And what incredible words they turned out to be. So incredible that Mudflats has many tens of thousands of visits a day. So incredible that AKM was able to help inspire thousands of people to come out for several different rallies in Anchorage, and Juneau, and in many other places around the country. So incredible that Mudflats won the "Best Political Blog of 2008".
And that is the person that Mike Doogan decided to attack today. That is the powerful progressive voice that an Alaskan Democrat decided to attempt to injure.
Oh Mr. Doogan how can you be so incredibly stupid?
If Mr. Doogan thinks his actions have done anything except anger the very people whose vote he is hoping to attract when next he runs for election, than he must have been living under a rock for these last six months. If Mike Doogan fails to realize that he has essentially struck out at an individual who many progressives see as a hero, than he is definitely too stupid to continue representing Alaska in any capacity.
You see Mr. Doogan after many, many years of standing in the shadows and watching this state get raped and pillaged by one corrupt politician after another, we have decided to band together to put a stop to it. You could have been part of that effort. You could have been part of the team. But instead you decided to put your ego ahead of your conscience and have sided with those who want to shut us up.
But we will not be shut up. We will not be marginalized any longer. You cannot attack one of us without attacking ALL of us. To paraphrase 70's icon Helen Reddy, "We are Alaskan Progressive Bloggers, hear us roar!"
