Another Question for Political Bloggers

    How would you monetize a plitical blog? Does adsense work well, or do you need to be more creative about it?

    Or do you just not worry about it and let the rest of the blog empire finance it?

    Adsense seems to have a hard time displaying relevant ads on political blogs, at least they did on mine and I rarely received clicks. CafePress has some politically relevant product advertising that might work that I haven't tried as of yet. Right now I am just using the PayPal beg button until I can generate enough traffic to warrant seeking out banner and text link advertisers.

    Would relevant links to amazon books or something similar work? Or is this an audience that won't be interested in buying books?

    Your best bet would be to try several different programs and see which one or ones work the best.
