Moderating comments takes a lot of time (if there are a lot of comments) and there's always the chance that comments contrary to the moderator's position or agenda will be discarded. Maybe a blog without comments would be worthwhile. You’re right Joe, the comments do often disintegrate into nothing worthwhile.

But there is a downside. The majority of the people who would post on this leader's blog would not have much to say or add. They would resort into insults and name calling all the time and that could clog the civic productivity that a blog or networking site could bring to our community leader(s). One needs just to look at just the local blogs like WE (Wichita Eagle) blog or even the comments on each article and lets not forget another example, such as the various DailyKos, Democratic Underground type of forums to see the cow squeeze that litters these sites. I do think it's a great idea and worth pursuing if a civic leader would love to get engaged in the community by reaching out using the interactive internet. Great post. :) I also think that is a great idea. But there is a downside.
