Abstract
The paper considers the recent Web debate relatively to the election of Pan-Hellenic Socialist Movement (PASOK) new President. PASOK was defeated on the national election of September 2007, and this defeat brought up a major leadership crisis. Election for a new leader was held on November 2007. The paper examines the posts of blogs linking to the two main candidates. Using social networking theory and statistical analysis, it measures blogs' connectivity, conversational patterns, and variations over time. It examines the skewdeness of incoming blog links and finds the core blog groups that serve as focal points for political bloggers. © 2008 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
