Florida’s Conservative Blogs…
Jim Johnson | August 14, 2007 |
I was recently asked to compile a list of Conservative Blogs… and, as you know, I have a keen interest in trying to add more “red” to the Florida blogosphere.
There are a few the are exclusively - or almost exclusively - political, with a “right-of-center” bent:
- Obviously I’ll start with mine, State of Sunshine.
- PEER Review FL is among the most conservative of blogs here in Florida.
- The Tallahassee Sentinel has a Florida focus, as well.
- Pekin Prattles tends to focus on national issues, but is still fun to read.
- The Florida Masochist, written by a self described conservative Democrat, is a good middle-of-the-road blog, with some chuckles thrown in.
A few others are talk about politics from time to time, but talk about other issues as well. I’ve only started reading some of these.
- Tampa Taxi Shots is written by a taxi driver, who happens to be running for Congress against Kathy Castor.
- He, along with Tampa Pirate are both part of the Blogs for Thompson movement.
- A Cool Change
- Attaboy
- 26th Parallel (specializing on Cuba and anti-Castro)
- Babalu (specializing on Cuba and anti-Castro)
- Pamibe
- Transterrial Musings
- Florida Cracker
- Infinite Improbability
- Assorted Babble has returned from a hiatus forced by health issues, keep her in your prayers.
There is also Front Page Florida, which isn’t a blog but is a conservative political a news-site. Still, it’s worth adding to your favorites.
Governor Charlie Crist posts his podcasts via ClickCaster. RPOF has some on their site as well.
Some candidates have blogs on now defunct campaign website — but State Senator Mike Haridopolos has a blog.
Now, the list of conservative blogs across the country is much more extensive, but I won’t go into that.
If I am missing any, please let me know!!

Thanks for noticing my blog! (FYI, the email address I’ve used above isn’t one I check regularly because of all the spam it attracts. Click the Florida tag in my sidebar for a different addie if needed.)
Yes, you’ve missed a bunch of conservative blogs, some of which are also in my sidebar. One I think you’ll find particularly interesting is Abstract Appeal, a blog by a lawyer who examines court decisions.
Again, thanks for noticing.
Some blogging notes
Suzie is back, Blogger Jim Johnson pays me a compliment and I return it, and has my cancer recurred after 13 years.
The East Florida Gazette Online is a tory-federalist inclined blog, in the classical liberal tradition. We like to think we were ‘conservative before conservatism was cool,’ and definitely before the blogosphere existed. We cover much of the ‘kerfuffle’ in Florida, which sometimes takes a us afield from politics. Not including the East Florida Gazette Online on a list of Florida’s conservative blogs, would be like saying the Weekly Standard is the only conservative magazine.

Hi, I am Kathleen Luppi, from the OC Register in California. I am sorry, but I don’t know where to post this link! Anyway, below is a link to an article about Florida Governor Charlie Crist is. Please feel free to link to our site. Thank you in advance!
These are historically challenging economic times our state is facing, but just like Florida’s families, we will continue to tighten our belts and live within our means. I am eager to work with Speaker Sansom, President Atwater and members of the Legislature to find solutions that best serve our people.
