Best Post Series A - Mere Rhetoric, Seraphic Secret, It's Almost Supernatural and Israelly Cool!
Best Post Series B - Shiloh Musings - Arab Mansions 1, 2, 3
Best Post Series C - Though it's not listed separately, May I recommend Soccer Dad's Series on Walt and Mearsheimer staring with Poisoned Ivies especially The way back machine and Palestinian Israeli conflict.
Best News Post B - Sestak CAIRS (In Context)
- Congressman Conyers and Islam (Daled Amos)
Best Right Wing Post A - Cohen's Mistake (Soccer Dad)
That's it for now. I'm sure I missed some good ones. But this isn't so easy to navigate and it's already taken too much of my time. Worst of all I was unable to vote because the test script is not working right.
Thanks to those of you who supported Soccer Dad in the initial round of voting, alas I only made the cut in seeing that Haveil Havalim was first in its group in the special contribution category and Best Large Blog (behind the very worthy Mere Rhetoric).
UPDATE: I had some trouble navigating, but I had previously recommended SerAndEz's A Hitch and a Prayer as one of the best posts of the year. Vote for it in Best Jewish Religious Post Group B.
UPDATE II: Some other (self-)recommendations
The Ignoble Experiment
Life of Rubin
Something and half of Something - In particular check out Remembering Rachel
SerAndEz I II and III
Israelly Cool! - He's the guy who started it all!

Posted by: Ezzie at April 30, 2007 12:37 PMI didn't end up going with Cohen's Mistake, but did go with the Poison Ivies, IIRC. I'm going to put a post on the posts a little later when I have time (I already did the categories, dunno if you saw).
Best Overall Group F should be called the crying zone. They're all amazing and almost all make you cry. :( I went with DAG there.
