“Wha Happened?!”

In the words of Mike LaFontaine (Fred Willard) from the very funny “A Mighty Wind” (though not as funny as Waiting for Guffman, Best in Show or This is Spinal Tap) “Wha Happened” to Paint the 8th Red?  After Ellsworth Watch merged with Paint the 8th back in September the blog, designed to keep tabs on freshman Democrat Congressman Brad Ellsworth, just disappeared.  Now only one of Indiana’s (not so)freshman Reps, Baron Hill, is being closely monitored for his legislative activity.

Should we assume that Brad Ellsworth is now going to get off scott free leaving 8th Congressional candidate Greg Goode without any internet coverage (aside from us or whenever he updates his blog)?  It also leaves the southwest portion of the state without an online voice.

Maybe the southwest section is just going through some blogging growing pains.  I hope that “Paint the 8th” or some variation of it returns to the web soon.
