What do all the trendy aggregated political sites have in common? No support for feed autodiscovery.

My first guess would have been lack of genuine or original opinion. These services are bound to be bland and boring. Just as Google News won't replace a proper newspaper with its own POV, editorial policy and comment. A newspaper is more than the aggregation of its articles. But of course the geeks won't see it because you can only code an aggregator and not something interesting. Perhaps your feed (I really like included comment links!) would be even nicer if you put the category in some tag as well. It's less distracting that way.

Nice catch! Because my browser does it automagically, I don't pick on it much anymore.
