So Long, Shot

THE NET’S GOOD OLD BOY DEFENDERS SAY GOODBYE

FITSNews – June 30, 2008 – The internet wing of consultant Warren Tompkins incumbent protection and lobbyist enrichment business (a.k.a. Shot Politics) is shutting down, according to a post on their website.  After three years and literally hundreds of articles, “The Shot” closed its doors with a music video and a quote from the song they selected for their farewell, “Closing Time” by Minneapolis-based Semisonic.

Which means for once there was actually something worth watching on their website …

In all seriousness, though, we’re sad to see them go.  As much as we disagreed with their big government, ambulance chaser world view, they certainly kept Sic Willie’s ego well-fed and occasionally provided us with some competition.

Anyway, check out Palmetto Scoop and SCHotline to see some other reactions to the news, and remember that one less disagreeing voice remains one less voice, which is never a good thing in an arena where more people need to be raising theirs to the rooftops …
