Yesterday, the DNC announced plans to embed local bloggers with each state delegation at the Democratic National Convention in Denver.

This strikes me as worth mentioning.

During the last presidential election, both the DNC and RNC issued credentials to bloggers for their respective conventions. But these were the big guys -- writers for sites like Daily Kos and RedState.org.

Over the last four years, we've watched the steady rise of state-based blogs, people focused on local politics and community issues. It's entirely appropriate that the DNC is making an effort to include these local activists. It's even better that they'll be coming to Denver as part of the official state delegations -- that's well-deserved recognition for the energy they are bringing to Democratic parties across the country.

But the press language suggests that each state will be allowed just one blogger, and that each must apply through the DNC by April 15 and meet a set criteria in order to be credentialed.

So here's my question -- what does the DNC plan to say to the random pledged delegate (or even superdelegate) who is already slated to be part of the state contingent and who also writes and maintains her own blog? Does she count against the state's total for its blogger totals? Is she prohibited from posting to her blog during the convention?

I know the last thing Democrats need is yet another controversy involving the composition of state delegations to the convention. But let's hope this one gets resolved with the good humor and comity lacking so far in other disputes.
