The Future's Not Ours To See

National Review Online has a Symposium on 2004 Predictions by noteworthy media types (and Kathryn Jean Lopez). Jonah Goldberg's and Clifford May's are easily the best of the bunch, but Hugh Hewitt is the only one who saw fit to include a mention of blogs:

The Evangelical Outpost and Power Line become the must-read blogs of '04.

Ahem...ahem...Didn't you forget a certain humble blog in your list Hugh? A blog that has become a "force" in the blogosphere in the last year and shows no signs of going anywhere but up in 2004?

Sure Joe is doing a great job over at the Evangelical Outpost and the guys at Powerline are a class act, but you're missing out on a rising blog that's staring you right in the face.

Dismiss us if you want Mr. Hewitt, but clearly you have committed a grave oversight by failing to mention the real must-read blog of 2004.

We speak of course of no other but Spitbull. That's right, Spitbull. Listen Hugh. Spitbull's voice is the voice of a new generation. Our generation. Their time has come.

Of course given Hugh's past record of prognostication (how 'bout them Buckeyes?), his prediction about Powerline and Evangelical Outpost becoming must-reads of 2004 may just be the kiss of death for those two fine outfits.
