How Much Political Influence Do Bloggers Have?

Adrianne George BWIE @ Democratic National Convention

I have seen photos of Adrianne George of Black Women in Europe at the Democratic National Convention, and Jessica Ann Mitchell of Black Bloggers Connect at one of the Inauguration Balls.  

They and many other bloggers have done a lot of excellent work in supporting President Obama's re-election campaign. 

But how much political influence do bloggers have? 

The President has met and consulted with bloggers during both Presidential campaigns.   Did bloggers help President Obama to win re-election?
