The 8th Annual Right Wing News Conservative Blog Awards

 In order to recognize the excellent work some of our fellow bloggers have been doing, RWN has put together the "8th Annual Right Wing News Conservative Blog Awards." More than 250 bloggers were invited to vote for their favorite blog in numerous categories and these are the ones who responded (including me)

Ace of Spades HQ, Dodgeblogium, Ed Driscoll, The Underground Conservative, Atlas Shrugs, Doug Ross, Nice Deb, The Anchoress, Libertarian Republican, Rachel Lucas, Pirate's Cove, Russ. Just Russ, Moonbattery, Alexa Shrugged, Gina Cobb, Blackfive

Here were the rules of the contest:

1) For every category except "The Best Blog Overall," each judge was allowed to make 1-5 unranked selections. The winner of each category was the blog with the most votes.

In "The Best Blog Overall" category, the judges made 1-15 unranked selections. Rank in that category was also based on the number of votes received.

The winner of each category is presented below with their total number of votes in parentheses beside of them.

2) The judges were not allowed to vote for my blogs since I'm sponsoring the contest.

Before the results are presented, here's a list of the judges. RWN appreciates their participation...

If you want an aggregator that looks at hundreds of blogs, check out www.LibertyJunkie.com

Yes, this is a shameless plug for my site but I peruse hundreds of conservative blogs (adding more all the time), and categorize based on hot topics in the news.

Oh, man, I totally forgot about Right Wing Nut House for the most annoying on the right.

I was rather surprised by who got the best design. Flopping Aces is an excellent design, personally voted for them, but, with all due respect to Michelle Malkin and Hot Air, their designs are rather, basic. Others have much better designs.
