Happy Third Birthday, Swing State Project

Posted by DavidNYC

Today is, believe it or not, the third birthday of the Swing State Project, which began three years ago as a humble diary on DailyKos. Since then, this site has featured several guest posters who have risen to prominence in the blogosphere, like Chris Bowers & Tim Tagaris; raised tens of thousands of dollars for numerous Democratic candidates; and has led the way on candidacies like Paul Hackett's in the OH-02 special last year and Paul Hodes's in NH-02 this year.

Most importantly, what's kept this site going are the readers and commenters. Indeed, we've had an astounding 2.75 million visitors since we began publishing this site. I personally have learned so much from following the discussions here and I look forward to reading the comments every day. So a huge thank you to everyone who has made Swing State a huge success over the years. My hat is off to all of you!

Happy birthday!

So do you have some sort of bias toward the name Paul?

Three Cheers for Swing State Project. A great site and a great group of people. Keep up the fine work, and thanks for not being into Ron PAUL or his ilk. LOL.

I guess you could work on getting Paul Newman to run.

Congratulations!
