Comparison between Instapundit and Daily Kos

I'm sure this isn't some groundbreaking research or anything, but I found Daily Kos to be extremely liberal. Nearly every video praised Barack Obama or talked about how he was winning. They embed a lot of videos and write their own opinions. 

The post that I thought was most interesting was on Nov. 3 where Dixville Notch, NH shows the history of their voting record and how it relates to the possible winner of the election. Obama is the first candidate since at least 1984 to win that town, which has traditionally gone Republican. 

A little further down, Daily Kos shows an unwanted endorsement from President Bush to John McCain saying that he agrees with him on the economy and national security. There are also Obama ads on the site. 

Instapundit on the other hand seems more bias towards McCain. Their blog seems to be more about posting short little comments and linking out to the rest of the full stories. It seems to have more sensationalist news as well. One thing that really got to me was this comment they had, linking to ABC News.

Among the other voters who have shown up to vote at Shoesmith Elementary School this morning, where Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., will vote: Louis Farrakhan and William Ayers.

Seriously.

Welcome to the South Side of Chicago.
