John McCain held another blogger conference call Friday morning which Moe Lane, California Yankee and I were glad to participate in. Overall it went well. The bloggers took McCain to task over the NC GOP ad, and McCain took Obama to task over Ayers and Hamas. A number of well-known bloggers had the opportunity to ask questions, including Hugh Hewitt, Michael Goldfarb, Jim Geraghty, Amanda Carpenter, Sean Hackbarth, Ed Morrissey, Jennifer Rubin and more.
