Over at Salon, Alex Pareene is halfway done with his rundown of the 30 worst inside-the-beltway pundits. And while we don't agree with all of Pareene's choices (especially the people we work with or will work with in this or future lives), we're interested to see who will crack the top ten. On Twitter, the feeling was mutual.
MOST IMPORTANT: Need a hashtag for our Hack 30 predictions. I suggest #Hack30. (And, yeah, Dean Broder may edge out the GAME CHANGER.(S))

Wondering if Jon Stewart's conflictionator montage from the rally added some names to the #hack30 ? Walsh? Olbermann?

@anamariecox #Hack30 works. But we also need #Flack30, #ShackedUp30, & #OnCrack30.
