The popular political blog The Evangelical Outpost has been down all weekend, and is still not accessable.
A bandwidth exceeded message has been up since Saturday, today a 404 is up.
Joe Carter blogs out of Dallas, let’s hope this is due to hits, not spam or a ddos.
This has to be a pundit blogger’s worst nightmare, crashing just before an election.
Joe, if you need some blog time, get in touch, you are welcome to use this space.
Update: He’s baaacck. With all the traffic Joe gets - blogging up here in Canada would be kind of lonely.:^)

Hey Bene,
***This has to be a pundit blogger’s worst nightmare, crashing just before an election.***
You aren’t kidding! Fortunately, it happened on the last day of the month and my bandwidth restarted on the first so it wasn’t too traumatic.
As painful as it was to know that I am sitting on the sidelines, down times like that help me put blogging in perspective. I used the day-long sabbatical for additional prayer and bible-study and reflection on the fact that neither blogging or the upcoming election is the most important thing in the universe. It’s all too easy to forget that sometimes.
Thanks for the generous offer to use your site. If it had lasted more than a day I might have taken you up on it (though I would never sully your blog with American politics). ; )
By the way, I’m sure that the Candadian side of the blogosphere will breath a sigh of relief after the U.S. election is over. Hopefully, we will soon be getting back to discussing topics of more importance.
The offer stands anytime bandwidth is exceeded or you get a 404, if you ever need some blog time, holler. And you wouldn’t be censored, not even on American politics. Blog on!:^)
