O where have all the pandas gone?

Congratulations to Jesse Taylor of Pandagon, who is leaving Blogistan behind to actually participate in the political process. That's fine for him, if you like that sort of thing, but I find it hard to believe that working in campaigns and stuff can be more fulfilling than bitching about it online!

But in all seriousness, I wish him all the best, and also for his candidate, Ted Strickland of Ohio. Go Democrats in 2006!

(As an aside, I note that Jesse's co-blogger, Amanda Marcotte, is taking over full proprietorship of Pandagon, which makes me wonder: is this the first time an entire blog has changed hands completely? There have been blogs that have closed, only to see their owners launch other blogs or join other collective blogs, and that sort of thing; but has an actual blog ever continued under the ownership of a new blogger when the one who launched it left?)
