TalkLeft has been named one of the top 100 law blogs by the American Bar Association Journal.

Here's the catch. You get to vote for your favorites. TalkLeft is named in the "politics for sport" category.

I'm coming a day late to this news, so don't be put off by the large number of votes other blogs have gotten. There's still time for your vote to count. Voting ends January 2, 2008.

Three of the five blogs named are or tilt right -- Instapundit, Hugh Hewitt and Bench Memos (National Review.) The other two are Glenn Greenwald and TalkLeft. I hope you'll vote for TalkLeft or Glenn Greenwald-- just go to this link and select your choice. It takes less than five seconds. No identification is required.

As far as I can tell, only TalkLeft is written by practicing lawyers. The others in our category used to be practicing lawyers or in Instapundit's case, is written by a law professor. Thanks, I hope we get to keep this award on the progressive side of the blawgosphere.
