It only seems fitting that as Washington, DC marks the 40th anniversary of the Watergate break-in this weekend, right-wing bloggers are gathered in Las Vegas to honor the legacy of Andrew Breitbart.
Like Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, whose reporting on the failed burglary lead to the resignation of Richard Nixon, Breitbart has inspired a new generation of journalists and news organizations.
And, also like them, his methods have affected the way politicians behave.
In fact, presumptive GOP nominee Mitt Romney's recent behavior is right out of the Breitbart playbook.
No doubt, Andrew is looking up and smiling.
