The Blogagauntlet: The FINAL Results!
First, I just want to say a quick thanks to both of our competitors this week, it’s been real fun running this little battle royale between Andy and Talyor, both of whom performed admirably.

ROUND 1 Round 1 of The Blogagauntlet challenge kicked off yesterday with great gusto. Both Andy (Hopester Politics) and Taylor (Can’t You See That Man Is a Nig?) tee’d off on why their man Barack has their respective backs.
